What is Physical Medicine or Physiatry?

Physiatrists focus on restoring function. They care for patients with acute and chronic pain, and musculoskeletal problems like back and neck pain, tendonitis, pinched nerves and myofascial pain. They also treat people who have experienced catastrophic events resulting in paraplegia, quadriplegia, or traumatic brain injury; and individuals who have had strokes, orthopedic injuries, or Neurologic disorders such as multiple sclerosis, polio, or ALS.  For more information about Physiatry go to the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at www.aapmr.org .
