If you are suffering from chronic or acute pain, you know just how debilitating it can be. In addition to the physical effects of constantly being in pain, chronic pain can interfere with your day-to-day life, preventing you from doing the activities that you love. In addition, it can lead to emotional and psychological challenges, including depression.
Pain management is a field of medicine that aims to ease the suffering and improve the quality of life of people who suffer from chronic pain. Since chronic pain can show up in many forms and conditions, pain management utilizes a broad approach, including various noninvasive therapies as well as medication. Advanced Health provides compassionate and focused pain management care, helping their patients get the relief that they need.
While everyone may experience pain periodically, chronic pain is pain that lasts for 12 weeks or more. The pain can be dull, aching, sharp, or burning, and it may come and go or remain constant. It can show up as chronic headaches, lower back pain, cancer pain, muscle pain, joint pain, and more. Sometimes, treating the underlying condition can help to improve chronic pain.
However, there are situations where the pain can remain without an obvious cause. In these situations, professional pain management can offer some relief. The Advanced Health team works with their patients to deliver pain management care that is designed to fit their individual needs. Call the office today to determine whether you are a candidate for professional pain management.
Initially, your Advanced Health provider will meet with you and discuss your medical history in detail. In addition, they will conduct a thorough physical examination and take any laboratory or diagnostic tests that are needed. Based on the nature of your chronic pain, your provider will create a treatment plan for you, which may include medication, certain medical procedures, or lifestyle changes such as physical therapy.
