Pain Management for Chronic Diseases
Aside from the basic availability of the pain management treatments at our hospital, we offer a range of extended treatment facilities for more severe conditions like the ones mentioned down below:
Sciatica pain
Sciatica is termed as the nervous pain that patients feel along the path of the sciatic nerve, from the lower back down to the hips and buttocks of the patient. In patients with mild pain, the condition can be treated with physical therapy, medications and proper lifestyle. However, in patients with severe conditions especially resulting in leg weakness and irregular bowel movements, our specialist team of doctors assess their condition and suggest a surgical intervention to correct the issue.
We use epidural steroid injection for some of the cases of severe sciatica which will relieve your pain without surgery.
We give those injections in operation theatre by experiences pain management specialists under c-arm guidance at correct site.
Lower back pain
There is not one but multiple causes behind lower back pain. A patient will require medical intervention if their lower back pain stems from muscle strain or weakness, pinched nerves or spinal cord misalignment.
Our doctors can suggest a variety of treatment options for patients struggling with lower back pain, including medications, physical therapy. In case the lower back pain is too severe and requires a surgical intervention, there are quite a few options to look out for.
Intraarticular Knee Injection Technique
This is one of the crucial pain management techniques done by the doctors to relieve inflammation around the tendons and joints of the knee. The Intra- articular corticosteroid injections are often used for some of the patients
struggling with knee pain due to osteoarthritis or other inflammatory conditions.
The injection is often a mode of preliminary treatment in the patients who aren’t fit or symptomatic enough to undergo a joint replacement surgery.
Viscosupplementation
Arthritic patients consistently complain about pain and inflammation in their joints, especially around the knees. Since osteoarthritis is all about managing the pain and the inflammation, the viscosupplementation injection helps
relieve the pain and the discomfort that the patients consistently struggle with.
Interlaminar Injection
The interlaminar injection is injected in patients complaining about chronic pain around the lower back, sciatica, herniated discs or other back problems.
This is a steroid medication that is injected into the site of pain to relieve the pain and inflammation temporarily to speed up the healing and recovery process in the patient. The injection is generally pushed in the back between the spine and the spinal cord of the patient for immediate relief.
Transforaminal Injection
This is another form of injection or treatment that helps relieve pain and inflammation around the lower back, feet and the legs in the patients. This type of treatment is very common in patients that come to us with complaints of severe sciatica pain or herniated disc.
Like the interlaminar injection, even the transforaminal injection contains a mixture of analgesic and steroid medication to relieve complaints of pain and inflammation in patients.
