Any physician who is treating HIV-infected patients can expect to deal with individuals who are or will be experiencing the physical manifestations of the disease. Fortunately, most of these conditions can be successfully treated; other cases have palliative treatments that can improve quality of life and assist in pain reduction and suffering. All patients with HIV need to be managed jointly throughout their illnesses so that these patients do not receive conflicting advice, prescriptions, and so forth. Also, patients benefit from receiving care from the specialist that is most appropriate for their condition. The physician or dentist working alone can often help the patient; when they work together, however, optimum care is likely the result.
任何治疗艾滋病毒感染患者的医生都可能会遇到正在或将会经历该疾病身体表现的个体。幸运的是，这些病症大多都能得到成功治疗；其他病例也有缓解性治疗方法，可改善生活质量并有助于减轻疼痛和痛苦。所有艾滋病毒患者在患病期间都需要联合管理，以免他们收到相互矛盾的建议、处方等。此外，患者接受最适合其病情的专科医生的护理会受益。单独工作的医生或牙医通常可以帮助患者；然而，当他们共同协作时，可能会带来最佳护理效果。
