## 3. Pain Management in the Emergency Department
1. **Initial Triage Assessment**
- Use the *Numeric Rating Scale* (0‑10) or *Visual Analogue Scale*.
- Document onset, location, radiation, associated symptoms.
- Perform a focused physical exam and relevant imaging if indicated.
2. **Analgesic Strategy**
- **Non‑Opioid** first for mild‑moderate pain: acetaminophen 650–1000 mg q6h (max 4000 mg/day), NSAIDs as per contraindications.
- **Opioids** reserved for moderate‑to‑severe pain or when non‑opioids are ineffective/contraindicated:
- Start with low‑dose oral oxycodone 5 mg PO q4-6h PRN (max 30 mg/day) or morphine 10 mg PO q4h PRN (max 60 mg/day). Adjust per response and tolerability.
- Monitor for adverse effects; use adjunctive anti‑emetics/anticholinergics if needed.
### 2. **Chronic Pain Management**
| Modality | Goal | Typical Use in this Patient |
|----------|------|-----------------------------|
| **Pharmacologic** | Reduce nociceptive signaling, improve function | - Continue current opioid at lowest effective dose 30 mg/day morphine equivalents.
- Consider adding gabapentinoid (gabapentin 300‑600 mg TID) for neuropathic component if present.
- Use NSAIDs only if no contraindication; otherwise use acetaminophen up to 4 g/day. |
| **Physical Therapy** | Improve mobility, http://www.rohitab.com strengthen core and gluteal muscles, reduce lumbar load | Referral to PT with focus on hip abductor strengthening, gait training, low‑impact aerobic activity (e.g., stationary bike). |
| **Behavioral Therapy / Pain Management Clinic** | Cognitive‑behavioral strategies, relaxation, biofeedback to manage pain perception. |
| **Follow‑up Schedule** | 1–2 weeks after discharge for medication reconciliation and pain assessment; then monthly until 3 months, then every 3 months up to 12 months or as needed. |

## 6. Summary of Key Points
| Issue | Recommendation |
|-------|----------------|
| **Initial Diagnosis** | Hip‑related pathology (e.g., gluteal tendinopathy) with secondary central sensitization. |
| **Treatment Plan** | Multi‑modal: NSAIDs, targeted PT, activity modification, education on central pain mechanisms, gradual return to sport. |
| **Return‑to‑Sport Criteria** | Pain ≤ 2/10 at rest and during activity, full ROM, ≥ 90% strength vs contralateral limb, successful functional tests, psychological readiness. |
| **Follow‑up Prognosis** | 6‑month reassessment; good prognosis with adherence; risks include recurrence, chronic pain, overuse injury. |
