Pain Conditions We Treat
Many conditions can lead to acute or chronic pain, and in some cases the cause isn’t known. The pain is still real, and our experts respect and treat all pain conditions. That can include:
- Compression fractures of the spine
- Degenerative disc disease
- Facet arthritis
- Herniated disk
- Lower back pain
- Neck or arm pain
- Osteoarthritis
- Reflex sympathetic dystrophy (also called complex regional pain syndrome)
- Sacroiliac pain
- Sciatica
- Spinal stenosis, cervical or lumbar
- Spondylolisthesis
Treatments We Provide
Nonsurgical procedures are often the most effective way to treat pain. Our team of pain experts may recommend one of these treatments:
- Caudal steroid injection
- Cervical epidural steroid injection
- Discography
- Facet joint injections
- Lumbar epidural steroid injection
- Lumbar sympathetic block
- Lumbar transforaminal epidural steroid injection
- Sacroiliac joint steroid injection
- Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine: ideal for musculoskeletal complications, those impacted by inflammation, and people concerned about side effects and reactions associated with certain medications
In some cases, surgical procedures are the best way to relieve pain. For example, we use a surgery called rhizotomy to treat some types of chronic back pain.
