Find Effective Pain Therapy in Manhattan at Pain Treatment Specialists

October 15, 2021

HARVARD TRAINED PAIN DOCTORS | VOTED #1 PAIN CENTER | PAIN TREATMENT SPECIALISTS

If you can’t remember the last time you went a day without chronic pain, then it’s probably time to explore pain therapy in Manhattan. Waking up every morning, you automatically begin planning small detours and re-routing that allows you to work around your chronic pain conditions. Instead of walking downstairs to use the shower with more water pressure, you stay upstairs to avoid unnecessary activity. At work, your usual laps around the block after lunch are replaced by playing a time-wasting game at your desk. These small changes turn into major lifestyle decisions as your inactivity is leading to increased pounds and decreased health. You can’t take another day of avoiding your normal activities in order to appease your chronic pain.

What Can I Expect from Pain Therapy in Manhattan?

The goal of pain therapy in Manhattan is reducing or eliminating chronic pain from your life. This is done through a personalized consultation with one of our Harvard-trained pain doctors. During your first visit to our pain clinic in Midtown, you’ll notice that a large portion of your visit involves your pain doctor listening to you. They truly want to know how chronic pain affects your life, and what limitations it puts on your day. Armed with this knowledge and after a physical examination, your pain management doctors are able to identify the cause of you chronic pain, as well as its solution.

Every person’s pain treatment plan looks different based on what their pain levels and limitations are. Sometimes a variety of pain treatments are utilized in order to provide effective pain relief. For example, steroid injections are commonly used with physical therapy sessions in order to reduce pain and swelling while also building strength and flexibility in the affected area. Perhaps nerve blocks are used as the next level of minimally invasive care, and platelet-rich plasma injections work for people who have suffered injuries and need to promote growth and healing.

No matter the course of your treatment, know that you’re receiving the best care at Pain Treatment Specialists. Our treatments for chronic neck pain, back pain, knee pain, and shoulder pain are customized for each patient and provide long-lasting relief.

What are Steroid Injections?

Steroid injections are one of the first treatments used to manage chronic pain symptoms. They provide a more targeted approach to pain medicine, and offer substantially more pain relief than over-the-counter medicines. Your pain management doctor identifies the exact area for injection, and then administers a corticosteroid injection. A corticosteroid injection has effective anti-inflammatory properties that dramatically reduce pain and swelling. After your first steroid injection you’ll be back on your feet later the same day.

Nerve blocks are the next level of minimally invasive treatments used for patients who don’t find sufficient pain relief from steroid injections. Your genicular nerves are responsible for transmitting pain signals to your brain. A nerve block uses a local anesthetic to block these pain signals, which provides intense pain relief.

Platelet-rich plasma injections use the patient’s own blood to promote healing after an injury. Your pain doctor uses a centrifuge to separate platelets from your blood. These platelets are then injected into the injured area to stimulate new growth.

All of these treatments are highly effective at treating pain, and can only be found at a professional pain clinic. Schedule an appointment at Pain Treatment Specialists and begin the process of healing your chronic pain.

Are At-Home Treatment Plans Effective?

You can find pain relief through at-home treatments. It is still a good idea to keep your appointment at Pain Treatment Specialists to find out the exact cause of your chronic pain, as well as a long-term solution. In the meantime, you can find short-term relief through at-home remedies.

The common acronym RICE stands for “rest, ice, compress, and elevate.” This series of pain relief steps is used by athletes to treat pain and swelling. Rest the affected body part from strenuous activities, and avoid repetitive motions. Ice the area in 20-minute intervals to reduce swelling, and compress with a bandage or brace. Elevate the area with a pillow or chair to reduce swelling and promote blood flow. Used in combination with over-the-counter pain medicines, the RICE method helps treat pain, stiffness, and swelling at home.

It’s time to stop making accommodations for your chronic pain and begin finding solutions through pain therapy in Manhattan. Pain Treatment Specialists,  located in Midtown Manhattan near Grand Central Station, is your best choice for treating chronic pain symptoms.
