Pain Management
At Valley Sports Physicians &
Orthopedic Medicine, we are NOT specialists in pain management. There
are physicians who specifically specialize in Pain Management, and
undertake training in special “pain fellowships.”
However, we do see
and treat a lot of patients with chronic pain problems (see below). But
if your problem is more severe, or if it does not respond to the
treatments we have to offer, then we may refer you to a dedicated pain
specialist for further evaluation and possible treatment.
*Please note—we do not treat Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or cancer-related pain.
The most common pain problems we treat in our office include:
- Low back pain (including disc disease and arthritis)
- Neck pain (including disc disease, arthritis, and whiplash injuries)
- Joint pain and arthritis
- Myofascial pain syndromes
- Pain from posture imbalance
- Pain from chronic sprains and strains, including chronic tendinitis
- Pain from sports injuries
