Frequently Asked Questions
Physical Medication and rehabilitation (PM&R) is a medical specialty that helps patients recover physical function, manage pain, and improve mobility after illness, injury, or surgery through therapies like physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy.
The PM&R department treats stroke, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injury, arthritis, back pain, joint replacement recovery, cerebral palsy, Parkinson's disease, and chronic musculoskeletal conditions.
Treatments include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive rehabilitation, spasticity management, pain relief modalities, and assistive device training.
Rehabilitation duration varies by condition and severity. Stroke recovery can take weeks to months, while post-surgical rehab usually lasts from a few weeks to a few months depending on individual progress.
