Houston Pain Management

Pain Management

Chronic pain is a complicated, often debilitating medical problem that can have a major impact on both you and your families physical and mental well-being. Complicating the treatment of chronic pain is the uncertainty of your diagnosis or which treatment plan is best for you. Medication? Physical therapy? Injections? Multiple surgeries? The specialists at AOK Spine & Pain in Houston, TX will help you with your pain management every step of the way.

Interventional pain management involves certain special procedures used to help diagnose, treat, and manage symptoms of acute and chronic pain. Interventional procedures include, but are not limited to, medication management; injection(s) of local anesthetics and/or anti-inflammatory steroids around nerves, tendons, joints or muscles; spinal cord stimulation; and radio-frequency lesioning used to deaden nerves for long periods of time resulting in pain relief lasting up to 10 years. These techniques may help patients:

Exponentially reduce amount of pain they experience
