A Physical Medicine Specialist (also called a Physiatrist or PMR doctor) treats pain and movement problems of the muscles, joints, bones, nerves and spine without surgery. In Bangladesh, patients most often see them for long-standing low back and neck pain, PLID (slipped/prolapsed disc), cervical and lumbar spondylosis, frozen shoulder, knee osteoarthritis, sciatica, and rehabilitation after a stroke, fracture, or sports injury. They also manage rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis, nerve compression like carpal tunnel, and chronic pain that has not improved with painkillers. In a typical consultation the doctor takes a detailed history, examines your posture, joint movement and muscle strength, reviews X-rays or MRI if available, and may advise blood tests or nerve studies. Treatment usually combines medication, a structured physiotherapy or exercise plan, posture and lifestyle advice, and sometimes injections — with the goal of avoiding surgery wherever possible. You should consider seeing one when everyday pain, stiffness or weakness limits your work, sleep or daily activities, or when you need guided recovery after an injury, surgery or stroke.
