Understanding Chronic Pain
Chronic pain is a long-term condition that can be caused by injury, medical conditions, or illness. It is characterized by pain that lasts for more than 12 weeks and can affect various parts of the body. Chronic pain can lead to physical limitations, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbances.
Comprehensive Treatment Options
At our pain management clinic, we offer a comprehensive range of treatment options to manage chronic pain effectively.
1. Medication Management
Our experienced doctors work with each patient to find the most effective medication for their specific needs. We offer a range of medication options, including non-opioid and opioid medications, and we will take into account your medical history, lifestyle, and other factors to determine the best pain relief options for you.
2. Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is an essential component of pain management, especially for musculoskeletal conditions. Our highly skilled physical therapists work with patients to develop an exercise plan that helps reduce pain, improve mobility, and increase strength. We offer one-on-one physical therapy sessions that are tailored to your specific needs.
3. Injections
We offer a range of injection therapies to provide fast and effective pain relief. Epidural injections are used to manage pain in the neck, back, arms, and legs caused by spinal conditions. We also offer joint injections, such as cortisone shots, which can help reduce inflammation and pain in the joints caused by conditions such as arthritis.
4. Minimally Invasive Procedures
For some patients, minimally invasive procedures can be an excellent option for managing chronic pain. These procedures are performed using small incisions and specialized tools, which reduces the amount of tissue damage and blood loss. Additionally, many of these procedures can be performed on an outpatient basis, allowing you to return home the same day as your procedure.
