Living with chronic pain is a reality for millions of people today, interfering with their ability to enjoy even the simplest of pleasures. What many do not know, however, is that today there are numerous interventional pain management techniques available that can help these individuals control chronic pain.
Acute pain is often your body's way of alerting you that something is wrong and, in fact, 90% of all medical conditions are discovered as a result of the onset of pain. Acute pain is usually resolved when the underlying condition is treated. However, when pain is not resolved after medical treatment (usually greater than six weeks), the pain then becomes chronic in nature.
Chronic pain often causes dramatic changes in a person's ability to function, and to lead a normal life. The physicians and the staff at Medical Pain Management Services utilize the latest in treatment and technology to address the complexity of all acute and chronic pain conditions. Working together to manage pain with early interventional treatment and invasive modalities can reduce the impact of pain and restore the patient’s quality of life. Services are available through physician referrals on an out-patient basis, or in the hospital setting.
