Chronic Pain Management
Chronic pain can be treated with various therapies, and many chronic pain patients can be treated with medications and physical therapy. Along with Chronic pain management, we provide interventional and alternative pain management.
What Is Chronic Pain Management
Everyone can experience pain, and not everyone experiences chronic pain. An individual suffering from chronic pain will not "get better" with a few days of rest. When the pain signals remain active in the body for weeks, months, and years, the individual suffers from chronic pain and requires medical intervention.
Chronic pain can result from an injury, surgery, or an underlying medical condition. Individuals suffering from chronic pain can have their professional and personal lives affected. Many lose work days between the physical symptoms and scheduling doctor's appointments. And many feel limited in participating in activities they once enjoyed on a daily basis.
It's crucial to consult a pain specialist for evaluation to identify any underlying condition or untreated injury that requires attention.
