What is Pain Management?

Pain management is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis and treatment of chronic pain conditions, such as back pain, neuropathic pain, and arthritis. Pain management specialists employ a combination of medications, physical therapy, interventional procedures, and lifestyle modifications to help patients manage pain and improve their overall quality of life.

Chronic pain can significantly impact daily activities, and pain management specialists aim to provide relief and help patients regain functionality. Treatments are personalized based on the patient's needs and underlying conditions.

Common Conditions Treated

Chronic Back Pain: Persistent pain in the spine caused by conditions like herniated discs or degenerative disc disease.
Neuropathic Pain: Pain caused by nerve damage, often seen in conditions like diabetes or post-surgical neuropathy.
Arthritis Pain: Joint pain caused by inflammation in conditions such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Headaches and Migraines: Chronic headaches that affect daily life, requiring a multidisciplinary approach to treatment.
Cancer Pain: Pain management for patients undergoing treatment for cancer.

Procedures and Treatments

Medications: Including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and muscle relaxers to manage pain.
Nerve Blocks: Injections that block pain signals from specific nerves.
Spinal Injections: Injections to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain in the spine.
Physical Therapy: Exercises and treatments designed to improve mobility and reduce pain.
Chronic Pain Counseling: Psychological support to help patients cope with long-term pain.
