NYC Pain Medicine and Pain Management

In the United States, no medical complaint is as common or widespread as pain. Pain can originate from a variety of sources, most of which are temporary and will resolve given time or treatment. Some people develop chronic pain, which may be caused by a spine or orthopedic problem. People with chronic pain should get treatment from an experienced pain medicine expert.

What is Pain Medicine?

Pain medicine is the treatment of pain, both chronic and acute. Although pain medicine is intricately linked to other fields of medicine, ranging from cancer treatment to orthopedics to autoimmune diseases, it is its own field of medicine. Pain experts have an unparalleled understanding of the complex mechanisms that cause pain and the comprehensive solutions necessary to treat it.

Your Pain Matters

If you suffer from chronic pain, you deserve treatment. Pain should not be dismissed as just part of the aches and pains of aging. Although it's common to experience mild to moderate pain for a few days, pain that is severe or that persists for a week or longer should receive medical attention. 

The fact is, the effects of pain on your health and quality of life are far-reaching. People suffering from pain are often less able to participate in work and leisure activities and to maintain social and familial relationships. Problems such as insomnia, depression, anxiety, and lowered immune response may develop.
