If the pain from a pinched nerve is severe, your doctor may recommend that you take painkillers. You may be advised to take over-the-counter painkillers, or you may be prescribed stronger prescription painkillers. Painkillers work by blocking and interfering with the pain signals going through the brain. If the pain signal does not reach the brain, then pain cannot be interpreted and felt. Examples of OTC painkillers include paracetamol and acetaminophen Examples of prescription painkillers include codeine and tramadol. NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications) work by blocking specific body chemicals that cause an injured area to become inflamed. Examples of NSAIDs are Ibuprofen, Naproxen and Aspirin. However, NSAIDs should not be taken in the first 48 hours of injury as they can delay healing. In the first 48 hours, inflammation is one of the body's compensatory mechanisms to the injury. NSAIDs can irritate the stomach, so they should always be taken with meals. Steroid injections can help to reduce inflammation and swelling, thereby allowing compressed nerves caused by inflammation to heal and recover. Steroid injections must be prescribed and administered by a doctor. The steroids will either be injected or administered through an IV. In some instances, you doctor will recommend that you wear a brace or splint on the affected hip. A brace or splint limits motion and allows the muscles to rest, relieving the pinched nerve and promoting healing. If all prior treatment measures fail, surgical intervention may be necessary to alleviate the pressure and compression of the nerves.

One sign that you may benefit from anger management treatment is if your anger is having a negative impact on others or your relationships with them. Do others end up hurt physically or emotionally after you have an episode of anger? Do you find yourself losing social connections because of your anger? Do you find yourself regretting the way you treated others as a result of your angry outbursts? If so, then the costs of your anger are steep and you may benefit from anger management. Because of their hostility, individuals with anger issues tend to have fewer friends. Social support is an important factor that can help protect from stress and illness. Frequent anger can make you feel bad, and be bad for you. If you find yourself having frequent headaches or other bodily distress and think this may be caused by your anger, you may benefit from anger management. Keep in mind that some of the negative consequences of anger on your body cannot be felt, but the costs are still real. For example, frequently experiencing anger increases one's risk of heart disease, particularly among men. Anger causes individuals to lash out and sometimes at objects, by damaging or destroying them. If you find yourself hitting, breaking, or damaging objects, you may benefit from anger management. Angry people are cynical of others. Cynicism can involve a self-righteous attitude whereby an individual thinks that the things that make her angry are not things she would ever do herself. For example, if a driver was holding up traffic because he did not realize the light had turned green, she might think, "only an idiot would do that" when in reality it is fairly easy to get distracted at a red light. If you think anger is causing you to view the world in a negative way, you may benefit from anger management treatment. Individuals with anger issues tend to consume more alcohol and other drugs than individuals without anger issues. Over-consumption of substances can be bad for health and can lead to social and other emotional problems. Ask yourself whether your anger is making you feel bad, either through the consequences of your behavior, or the way it is making you think about the world around you, or both. If feelings of anger and the situations your anger gets you into is taking a toll on your subjective well-being, it may be time to seek out anger management.
