Back pain is one of the most common ailments that patients complain of and is a condition that can be burdensome, disabling, and excruciating to live with. Chronic back pain can severely impair one’s quality of life, prohibiting an individual from engaging in certain work and recreation activities, as well as self-care in the most severe cases.
At Pain Control Associates, LLC, our Merrillville back pain doctors understand that you need pain relief, and fast. For the personalized and effective treatment that you deserve, call our office today.
Back pain can affect people of all ages, genders, and lifestyles; however, those who are older, sedentary, suffer from certain diseases (like arthritis), and those who smoke may be at a greater risk of back pain. Additionally, having certain psychological conditions, such as depression, can also increase the risk of back pain, as can lifting heavy things – especially if lifting with improper form.
The above risk factors can put a person at a greater risk of back pain caused by a variety of conditions, including:
Scoliosis can also lead to back pain in certain cases.
We know how limiting and disrupting constant back pain can be, and our Merrillville back pain doctors want to make sure you get the help you need. We’ll work with you to learn your symptoms, identify the precise cause of your back pain, and develop a treatment strategy that is customized to you. Treatment for back pain might include:
In some cases, we may also recommend that you consider alternative therapy options, which can be very effective in some cases. Types of alternative therapy options that patients may consider include massage, acupuncture, and yoga. In some cases, mental health therapy and meditation can also help to alleviate pain, particularly when pain is associated with a mental health condition such as depression. The treatment options that we recommend will result from the details of your condition, what we believe will be most effective, and your preferences for treatment.
