Pain Management

Expert Treatment Process

Chronic pain can significantly impact daily life. Our pain management specialists aim to identify the source of pain and provide comprehensive treatment plans to alleviate discomfort and improve function.

We offer a range of minimally invasive procedures, including epidural steroid injections, nerve blocks, spinal cord stimulation, and radiofrequency ablation, all performed using advanced imaging guidance for precision.

The treatment process begins with a detailed assessment involving understanding the nature, duration, and triggers of your pain, and diagnostic tests like imaging and nerve studies to identify underlying causes.

Treatment planning includes a multimodal approach combining medications, physical therapy, and interventions, along with patient education to understand pain mechanisms and management strategies.

Interventional procedures involve image-guided injections for targeted delivery of medications and neuromodulation techniques using devices to alter pain signals. Follow-up care focuses on monitoring efficacy, adjusting treatments based on response, and providing support services like counseling and coping strategies.

What to Expect and How to Prepare

Before procedures, a medication review is necessary as some medications may need to be paused, and fasting may be required if sedation is used.

After procedures, activity restrictions involve limiting strenuous activity for a short period, and symptom monitoring includes keeping track of pain levels and any side effects.

Patient tips include maintaining open communication with your care team about effectiveness, incorporating lifestyle modifications like stress reduction techniques, and adhering to the treatment plan consistently for the best results.
