About physical medicine specialists in Dhaka

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.

When should you see a physical medicine specialist in Dhaka?

See a Physical Medicine Specialist when ongoing pain, stiffness or weakness in your back, neck, joints or muscles affects your daily life, or when you need non-surgical, physiotherapy-led recovery after an injury, fracture, surgery or stroke.

Frequently asked questions about physical medicine specialists in Dhaka

How much does a Physical Medicine Specialist cost in Dhaka?

In Dhaka, a Physical Medicine Specialist's consultation fee is usually between 500 and 1,500 BDT. Senior consultants or professors at well-known hospitals may charge 1,000-2,000 BDT, while follow-up visits are often cheaper. Physiotherapy sessions, injections, X-rays or MRI scans are billed separately.

How do I book and what should I expect at the appointment in Dhaka?

You can book a Physical Medicine Specialist in Dhaka online through ChamberBD or by calling the chamber. Bring any previous prescriptions and X-ray, MRI or blood reports. At the visit the doctor will ask about your pain, examine your movement and strength, and set a treatment plan that usually includes medication and a physiotherapy or home-exercise programme.

Who is the best Physical Medicine Specialist in Dhaka?

The best Physical Medicine Specialist in Dhaka for you is one who is well-experienced in your specific problem, such as back/disc pain, arthritis or stroke rehabilitation. On ChamberBD you can compare doctors in Dhaka by qualifications, years of experience, hospital, fees and patient reviews to choose the right one, rather than relying on a single ranking.

Can I consult a Physical Medicine Specialist online in Dhaka?

Yes. Many Physical Medicine Specialists in Dhaka offer online or telemedicine consultations, which work well for reviewing reports, follow-ups, medication adjustments and exercise guidance. However, a first visit for a new or severe problem often needs an in-person physical examination, so the doctor may ask you to come to the chamber.
