Improve Your Pet’s Quality of Life
Pain management is a critical aspect of your pet’s overall care, whether they are recovering from surgery, dealing with a chronic condition, or experiencing discomfort from an injury. Jupiter Veterinary Hospital has experienced, compassionate pain management solutions for cats and dogs. Our veterinarians regularly attend continuing education on pain management. We are dedicated to keeping all of our patients as comfortable as possible using the most up-to-date resources available.
When Your Pet is in Pain
- Post-Surgical Pain: After a surgery, pain management fosters a smooth recovery and minimizes discomfort.
- Injuries: Accidents or trauma, such as fractures, sprains, or muscle injuries, can cause acute pain that needs to be managed effectively.
- Chronic Conditions: Conditions like arthritis, degenerative joint disease, or intervertebral disc disease can lead to ongoing pain that impacts your pet’s mobility and quality of life.
- Orthopedic Issues: Pets with conditions affecting their bones, joints, or ligaments may need long-term pain management.
-
Systemic Diseases: Illnesses such as cancer, kidney disease, or heart disease may cause pain that needs to be addressed.
Recognizing when your pet is in pain can be challenging, as pets often hide their discomfort. Signs of pain may include changes in behavior, reduced activity levels, limping, vocalizing, or reluctance to move. Our team is trained to recognize these signs and help guide you through the next steps to relieve your pet’s discomfort.
How a Veterinarian Can Help: Creating a Plan
Our staff is here to alleviate any pain your pet may experience. We will formulate a pet pain management plan that works for you, your pet, and your budget, whether it be for pre- or post-operative surgery, injury, chronic pain, or systemic or orthopedic disease. We will find the safest and most effective way to manage your pet’s pain.
The Jupiter Veterinary Hospital & Urgent Care approach to pain management can include both traditional and alternative therapies, providing a wide range of options to build off of. We aim to improve your pet’s quality of life by minimizing or eliminating their pain. By working closely with you, we’ll develop an action plan that includes regular follow-up visits to monitor progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed. If we suggest a therapy or treatment that we cannot provide in-house, we will happily assist in referring you to a specialist for the most comprehensive care.
