Doctors Who Provide Gentle Pain Treatment in New Jersey
Pain Treatment Plans Don’t Have to Cause More Pain
What if you had a flat tire and the mechanic said he’d have to puncture all of your other tires to fix it? Or what if your pants needed to be hemmed and the seamstress said she’d have to remove the belt loops and zipper to hem them? Wouldn’t you seek a second opinion?
In pain management, patients are often presented with similarly invasive solutions that do unnecessary damage. Narcotics prescriptions, complex surgeries, and costly procedures are typical treatment modalities of pain doctors that can do more harm than good. The pain they incur is not only physical, it’s also emotional, mental, and financial.
You wouldn’t trust a mechanic who wants to flatten all your tires to fix one hole, so don’t trust a doctor who recommends major surgery for a minor pain condition. There are gentle solutions available, and a pain specialist knows how to help. Contact the world-renowned experts at Paint Treatment Specialists to learn more.
Interventional Pain Management Doctors Have Gentle Solutions
One reason pain treatments cause additional pain is they aren’t always tailored to the patient. Some primary care physicians don’t have the time or the pain expertise to accurately pinpoint the source of your pain. Instead, they offer generalized solutions that have worked for other patients. But understanding your unique makeup is key to gentle pain relief.
Interventional pain specialists identify your condition by learning about your medical history, lifestyle, and contributing factors like illness, stress, and work habits. If you suffer from shoulder pain, general physicians might prescribe pain medication or home remedies like heat or ice. But an interventional pain doctor can assess whether the pain comes from a rotator cuff tear, rotator cuff tendonitis, shoulder impingement syndrome, or even exercise.
Pain treatments vary depending on cause, so intervention and investigation are key to treatment that doesn’t cause extra pain. Nerve pain, muscle pain, or pain from tendons, ligaments, cartilage, or bones could be the cause. Intervention is also essential in ensuring that no further damage is done. Interventional doctors know how to prevent pain from spreading by catching conditions and predispositions early. They also know how to look for symptoms that signal an underlying condition is to blame.
If you’re looking for gentle pain treatment in New Jersey, make sure that the doctors are board certified in pain medicine and that they practice interventional care. Without such qualifications, you risk pain treatment that causes unnecessary pain. Doctors who are certified in pain management have tools for chronic pain conditions that other doctors don’t possess.
Instead of surgery or opioid medicines, interventional pain doctors use cutting edge research to treat pain. The Pain Treatment Specialists team utilizes groundbreaking techniques like COOLIEF SI Joint Cooled Radiofrequency and Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy. We stop pain right at the source with Cervical Epidural Steroid Injections and Lumbar Facet Injections. Instead of generalized systemic treatments, we target the trigger and eliminate pain in minutes.
