Abstract

Pain is a common symptom which can result in disability and lower quality of life. The current review covers the use of medicinal plants as an alternative therapy for pain relief, as traditional painkillers like NSAIDs, opioids, and antidepressants can have serious side effects. Medicinal plants are effective, easily available, low-cost, and have fewer side effects. The review examines commonly used medicinal plants, their active components, their pharmacological activity, and their mechanism of action for different types of pain in humans and animal models. The review also discusses the use of herbal therapies for pain in various conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, neuropathies, osteoarthritis, dysmenorrhea, headache, migraine, wounds, low back pain, and chest pain, and weighs the advantages and disadvantages of using herbal therapies in light of recent research.

疼痛管理的草药疗法:对现有证据的范围审查
摘要 疼痛是一种常见症状,可导致残疾和生活质量下降。由于非甾体抗炎药、阿片类药物和抗抑郁药等传统止痛药会产生严重的副作用,本综述介绍了使用药用植物作为替代疗法来缓解疼痛的情况。药用植物有效、易得、成本低、副作用小。这篇综述探讨了常用的药用植物、其活性成分、药理活性及其在人类和动物模型中治疗不同类型疼痛的作用机制。综述还讨论了草药疗法用于治疗各种疼痛的情况,如类风湿性关节炎、神经病变、骨关节炎、痛经、头痛、偏头痛、伤口、腰痛和胸痛,并根据最新研究权衡了使用草药疗法的利弊。
