Pain management

Pain is one of the most common reasons a patient sees a doctor. Everyone experiences some type of pain in their lifetime. Sometimes, pain can persist and become a chronic medical condition, which requires care from a healthcare provider to help manage and treat the problem.

What is a pain management?

Pain management is a specialty of medicine. A pain management provider specializes in identifying the cause of your pain, then treating it using the most innovative techniques available. Everyone’s pain is different. Sometimes, your provider can treat the pain and get rid of it completely. Other times, the pain cannot be completely treated, but rather, reduced to a level that is more manageable.
