Pain in the cervico-facial pathology: elements of etiopathogenesis, diagnosis and therapeutic principles
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Rhinology - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 35
Abstract
The authors conduct a review of the etiopathogenesis, the main diagnostic methods and the treatment principles in cervicofacial pain. Pain in otorhinolaryngology is a multifactorial symptom, based on the rich innervation and vascularisation of the cephalic extremity. Pain can be of central or peripheral origin, acute and chronic. With the diversification of methods for exploring pain-generating lesions, different treatment protocols could also be achieved.
