Pain Management

Pets feel pain just like you or I

For many of the same reasons, pets feel pain just like humans do.  Whether acute or chronic, the pain may stem from many conditions from dental troubles to serious internal issues that might require surgery.  While dentals or surgery might present its own pain temporarily, even if the successful procedure eliminates the pain associated with the underlying cause.  Our veterinarian and staff at Imperial Beach Pet Hospital provides pain control for your loved one to alleviate this stressful situation for you and your pet. 

Pet owners may perceive acute pain in their loved ones easier than chronic pain.  Chronic pain typically creeps up on us over time while acute pain is a singular event tht results in an immediate response.  Your pet may show signs of chronic pain if you keep alert for the signs.  Pets in severe pain may grow reserved and become very still, thier ears may flatten and they could make sounds of distress such as whimpering or crying.  If your pet continuously scatches or bites at itself there might be a chronic skin condition.  Cats instinctively hide their pain from others so it might be harder to observe thier condition.

At Imperial Beach Pet Hospital pain control might involve medication, non-invasive therapeutic procedures or surgery to correct the underlying condition.  Our veterinarians will conduct a comprehensive examination and from there determine the best course of action.  

Pain medication after surgery is commonly prescribed to make recuperation easier for your pet.  Each instance of pain can vary significantly  in the procedure or medicine prescribed, so a veterinarian should be consulted each time.  While it might look the same as last time, the actual underlying cause and proper procedure may vary significantly.  Do not reaqch into the medicine cabinet and treat your pet as if it was your own body.  Our veterinarians and staff care for your pets as if they were their own and try to make them feel better and recover as quickly as possible.
