Pain Management

Suffering from neck and back pain, cancer pain, arthritis, tendonitis or some other type of pain? The CMH Institute of Pain Management treats patients suffering from all types of pain.

You could benefit from pain management if you have pain from any of the following:

• Pain after surgery
• Auto accident
• Headaches
• Work-related injury
• Shingles
• Strokes
• Cancer pain
• Diabetic pain
• Spinal cord injury
• Arthritis
• Decreased circulation
• Osteoporosis
• Back pain
• Herniated discs
• Neck pain
• Myofascial
• Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome

A pain management physician will conduct a complete medical and physical exam tp create a customized treatment plan. Treatments could include:

Epidural Steroid Injections

Treatment for spinal nerve inflammation.

Trigger Point Injections

Treat painful areas that contain knots of muscle that form when muscles do not relax.

Nerve Blocks

“Turn off” the pain signal coming from specific locations in the body.

Chronic Pain Program

Pain management through a combination of medication, exercise and diet.

Bursa Injections

Bursa injection can help soothe joint pain caused by arthritis, bursitis and other painful inflammatory diseases. A bursa is a gel-filled sac that helps muscles and tendons glide over bones.

Facet Block

An injection that anesthetizes the facet joint and blocks pain. (Facet joints are the small joints located at each spine segment that provide stability and help guide motion.)

Radio Frequency Denervation

Radiofrequency (RF) rhizotomy or neurotomy decreases or eliminates nerve pain symptoms not responsive to more conservative pain treatments.

Spinal Column Stimulator

Soft, thin wires with electrical leads are placed through a needle in the back near the spinal column. The leads are placed through a needle inserted into the back. A small incision is made, and a programmable generator is placed under the skin of the upper buttock or abdomen. The generator emits electrical currents into the spinal column. All patients utilizing this treatment mechanism will undergo a trial version of a stimulator.
