Sources of Chronic Pain

There are various types of chronic pain, as well as various sources. When you work with Pain Control Associates, LLC, our goal is to determine what the cause of your chronic pain is – this way, we can treat the problem, not just the symptoms. Some of the most common sources of chronic pain that we have observed include:

• Nerve damage, which may be the result of a health condition or an injury that never fully healed;
• Arthritis, which tends to affect middle-aged and older adults;
• Poor posture, which can lead to back and neck pain;
• Accidents, ranging from traumatic incidents such as a car accident to lifting a heavy object with poor form;
• Disease, such as fibromyalgia; and 
• More. 

In many cases, diagnosing the source of the pain proves very difficult. There are some patients for whom there is no “obvious” explanation. 

Types of Chronic Pain Management Therapy

No one should have to live with chronic pain. Our chronic pain management therapy is designed to help you manage your pain in a way that is not only effective, but that is consistent with your values and your lifestyle. We never apply a one-size-fits-all remedy to our patients; instead, we work with you and determine what the best course of action is on a case-by-case basis. Some common treatment options that we recommend or prescribe for chronic pain include:

• Lifestyle changes, including improving diet, correcting posture, and exercising;
• Disease management, which is very important for those patients who are suffering from conditions that can cause pain;
• Massage, physical therapy, and other manual interventions;
• Non-traditional therapies, such as acupuncture;
• Prescription and over-the-counter pain medications;
• Medical injections and nerve blocks; 
• Electrical stimulation; and
• Surgery is the most severe of cases when other treatment options have failed.

We believe in taking the most non-invasive approach to pain management therapy first.
