Pain management, or pain medicine, is a growing medical specialty dedicated to treating acute, sub-acute, and chronic pain. The goal of pain medicine is to improve quality of life and help patients return to everyday activities, ideally without surgery.
Many people can control their pain effectively with over-the-counter or prescription medications or treatments offered by their physician(s). When pain cannot be managed using these methods, a pain specialist should be consulted. For most people in constant moderate to severe pain, pain management is a way to regain function and improve quality of life.
Injections for pain serve 2 purposes: first to diagnose or confirm the source/cause of pain, and the second is to reduce or relieve the source of inflammation/pain.
The key to finding the proper treatment for any type of pain is getting a proper diagnosis. Not all types of pain respond to the same treatments and the window for improvement can be limited. The experts at Ainsworth Institute offer the most advanced pain management treatments available today, including advanced clinical trials that aren’t yet available to the general public.
