Life just isn’t the same when you’re hurting. At Palo Pinto Interventional Pain Management, we know how pain can affect your daily life, and we are ready to help you.
Our highly trained pain specialists take a team approach to pain management. We offer a full suite of treatments that can help you get back to living your life how you want to.
When You Need a Skilled Pain Relief Doctor
At Palo Pinto, you’ll see a physician with extensive training in interventional pain management, meaning you’ll have access to minimally invasive procedures to treat your pain.
That starts with diagnostic care. We’ll take the time to pinpoint the cause of your pain. As part of your evaluation, our chronic pain doctor will review your health history and order imaging or other diagnostic tests. This information will help us create treatment options for you.
We consider you a key member of your healthcare team. We’ll present you with treatment options, and together we’ll decide on the best approach to managing your pain.
What We Help With In Our Pain Clinic
Whether your pain is related to a recent injury or an ongoing condition, we can help. We offer evaluations and treatments for a wide range of pain conditions, including:
- Arthritis joint pain.
- Nerve damage.
We provide comprehensive care in our pain clinic, including a wide range of effective treatment options.
Our treatments often start with conservative measures, such as:
- Non-narcotic medications.
- Osteopathic manual (hands-on) therapy.
- Physical therapy.
We may also prescribe equipment, such as a special brace, if that would help you manage your pain.
If conservative measures don’t relieve your pain, you may be a candidate for an outpatient procedure. Depending on your condition, that might include:
- An injection of steroids or other medicine in a joint or near a specific nerve to relieve or block pain.
- Trigger-point injections for myofascial pain.
- Radiofrequency ablation, which uses energy to burn and deaden painful nerves.
- A spinal cord stimulator trial. Spinal cord stimulation uses mild electric impulses to block pain signals.
