Demand on your CARE: Managing Chronic Pain in Older Adults

長者經常腰痠背痛，手腳乏力，沒有胃口及精神萎靡。家人或以為是正常退化現象。 然而這些看似普通並且常見的徵狀，卻不一定是退化造成。長者常因疼痛而未經治療或未得到充分治療。結果，疼痛治療不足可能對其健康及生活質數產生負面影響。 慢性痛症是指身體間歇或持續出現三個月或以上的痛楚，其成因各異。疼痛管理應包括藥物和非藥物方法。非藥物治療經常未被充分使用，應該考慮使用在每位患有慢性疼痛的長者。即使藥物療法被認為是重要的，非藥物治療也可以作為有用的輔助劑，以減少藥物使用的劑量和時間。 如果長者周身肌肉疼痛，徵狀持續，背後可能另有原因，需要深入了解及進行檢查，不要讓長者白白捱痛！
