Pain Management is the act, manner, or practice of managing
pain, handling or control of an unpleasant sensation occurring
in varying degrees of severity as a consequence of injury,
disease, or emotional disorder.
Anesthesiologists in this field use a variety of treatments
for acute and chronic pain. Those treatments can include physical
therapy, narcotics, and behavior modification. Pain Medicine
physicians limit their practice to the evaluation and management
of individuals with acute, cancer, lower back pain and chronic
pain. The Pain Medicine physician recognizes the complexities
of patients with chronic pain and addresses medical, physical,
psychosocial and environmental factors that affect the individual’s
perception of pain and the attendant disabilities. Pain Management
can range from basic management of recurrent migraines or
lower back pain to the advanced knowledge and techniques of
pain management for cancer and AIDS patients.
We work with many acute and chronic Pain Management specialists,
