If you’re experiencing any of the following, consulting a pain management specialist can be beneficial:
At Medicana, we offer:
We provide a diverse array of pain management techniques, including:
Steroid injections, also known as corticosteroid injections, are a common treatment for various pain conditions. These injections deliver a powerful anti-inflammatory medication directly to the affected area, providing significant relief from pain and inflammation.
Steroid injections are typically performed in a clinic or hospital setting. The procedure involves injecting the medication into the affected area using a needle, often guided by ultrasound for precision. The injection may also include a local anesthetic for immediate pain relief.
You can usually go home shortly after the injection, but it’s advisable to rest the treated area for a day or two. The effects of the injection may take a few days to become noticeable and can last for several weeks or months.
Your pain management consultant will discuss the potential benefits and risks of steroid injections with you, considering your individual medical history and any existing conditions.
Acute pain is typically short-term and a result of an injury or illness, while chronic pain persists for a longer duration and may not have a clear underlying cause.
If your pain is persistent, impacting your daily life, or if other treatments haven’t provided relief, it’s advisable to consult a pain management specialist.
Specialized pain management care offers expert diagnosis, a wide array of treatment options, personalized treatment plans, and collaborative care with other specialists for comprehensive pain relief.
We treat a wide range of pain conditions, including back pain, neck pain, leg pain, headaches, facial pain, nerve pain, and pain associated with various medical conditions.
We offer various treatment modalities like medication management, joint injections, nerve blocks, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and psychological support.
Joint injections and nerve blocks are generally safe when performed by experienced specialists, but potential risks and side effects will be discussed with you beforehand.
PRP and autologous blood injections utilize your body’s healing factors to promote tissue repair and reduce pain. These injections can be effective for tendon injuries and osteoarthritis.
The frequency of injections depends on the condition and your response. In general, it’s advisable to limit injections into the same joint to a few times a year.
Most adults and children can safely receive steroid injections. However, individuals with certain medical conditions, like active infections, uncontrolled diabetes, or bleeding disorders, may need to discuss alternative options with their doctor.
Recovery is typically quick, and you can usually go home the same day. You might need to rest the treated area for a day or two, but most people can resume normal activities soon after.
