Recent Advances in Pain Care

Millions of Americans suffer from chronic pain, but new treatment and medication options can provide relief for the majority of these patients. If you have an ongoing condition that causes localized or widespread pain, you should immediately seek treatment at a qualified pain center and ask your physician about new advances in pain treatment.

For example, spinal cord stimulation provides relief for many patients by sending a small electrical signal through the back. If you have chronic back pain, spinal cord stimulation might be a realistic option. Your physician will need to diagnose the source of the pain before implanting a stimulator in the epidural space of your back. Other epidural implants and injections can also provide relief, and a knowledgeable pain care specialist will need to perform a full examination in order to determine whether these options are viable for your case.

There have been a number of advances in pain medication over the past several decades, and medication is still the most popular option for treating most types of chronic pain. A physician can discuss the efficacy and potential side effects of various pharmaceuticals. Experienced pain specialists can balance medications to give their patients excellent results through an ongoing pain management plan.

Physicians can also offer more treatment options for patients who experience cancer pain, migraines and other recurring pain related to specific conditions. By closely examining the causes of the symptoms, physicians can help their patients decide whether behavioral therapy, surgery, medication or other types of treatment will provide appropriate help.

An advanced pain center can help its patients manage their pain by creating accurate diagnoses, working with insurance providers and finding the right treatment options. If you have chronic pain, you should immediately contact the qualified pain specialists at National Pain Care for more information on recent advances in pain science or to schedule an evaluation.
