Understanding Somatic Symptom Disorder: When Physical Symptoms Have Deeper Roots
At Dr Vikram�s Brain & Body Clinic in Bangalore, we understand how distressing unexplained physical symptoms can be. Somatic Symptom Disorder (SSD) involves persistent physical complaints such as pain, fatigue, or gastrointestinal issues that may not have a clear medical explanation, but cause significant emotional distress and impact daily life.
Many individuals with SSD frequently seek medical care, often unaware that emotional or psychological factors may be contributing to their discomfort. It is important to know that these symptoms are real and deserve compassionate, professional attention.
Psychiatric support can help identify the underlying causes and provide effective, evidence-based care. A collaborative approach, including therapy and supportive counselling, can significantly improve quality of life.
If you or someone you know is struggling with ongoing physical symptoms that remain unexplained despite medical tests, seeking psychiatric evaluation may be a crucial step. At our Bangalore-based clinic, we offer a respectful and holistic approach to mental health, addressing both mind and body with care.
Early recognition and professional guidance are key to managing Somatic Symptom Disorder and restoring well-being. Trust your health journey with experienced psychiatric care.
