Will my dog be in pain during and after surgery? - Animal Hospital of Statesville
We hope to be able to control that pain. Surgeries are painful procedures by definition, but we control that pain by giving them pain medication before surgery. We call that our pre-medication. We provide them with pain medication during the surgery, and then we send them home medication afterward. We also control pain through our cold laser, our K-Laser, a non-medication, but it is a pain control.
Will my dog be in pain during and after surgery? - Four Paws at Fulshear Veterinary Clinic
During surgery, the dog is under anesthesia and won't feel anything. Post-op, there may be some discomfort, but we put a lot of effort into multimodal pain control, including local nerve blocks, incisional blocks, anti-inflammatory injections, and oral meds to alleviate that discomfort.
