Frequently Asked Questions:Interventional Pain Management
is a specialized medical field devoted to diagnosing and treating pain-related disorders. Unlike general practice, it utilizes a multidisciplinary approach to provide a full range of treatments. Our goal is to reduce or manage your pain effectively while significantly improving your overall quality of life and daily function.
You should seek advanced interventional pain management if you have experienced pain for three months or longer, or if severe pain limits your movement. It is also the right step if your primary care provider cannot identify the cause, or if previous integrative treatments have failed to provide lasting relief.
Interventional pain medicine treats a wide spectrum of conditions, ranging from common arthritis and back pain to complex issues like Complex Regional Pain Syndrome and Trigeminal Neuralgia. Whether you suffer from chronic migraines, sciatica, or cancer pain, these targeted procedures are designed to address the specific source of your discomfort.
Advanced interventional pain management encompasses procedures as routine as joint injections and as sophisticated as spinal cord stimulator trials. We perform minimally invasive treatments such as radiofrequency ablation, epidural injections, and nerve blocks to treat conditions like spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease without the need for major surgery.
If your primary care doctor cannot find the cause of your symptoms, interventional pain medicine offers a diagnostic advantage. By using precise nerve blocks and advanced diagnostic techniques, we can isolate the specific source of pain—such as a specific nerve root or facet joint—to formulate a more effective, targeted treatment plan.
