Commonly Performed Pain Relief Techniques

As stated by Harvard Health, there is a reason why we experience pain – it alerts us that something within our bodies is abnormal and isn’t functioning properly. It can also manifest as soreness or stiffness after a necessary operation, which is a part of the healing process. However, while pain can be helpful in diagnosing a condition, it can quickly become frustrating when it begins to linger or become unmanageable.

At Henry County Hospital, our dedicated team is equipped to help manage pain in the upper body, lower body, muscles, nerves, and more. Some common types of pain management techniques we perform at our hospital include, but are not limited to:

What Does a Pain Management Specialist Do?

According to the Pain Specialists of America, pain management specialists are defined as medical professionals with expertise in evaluating, diagnosing, and treating pain. They typically require a board certification or some other form of advanced training to qualify as experts within the field. Due to this extensive education and certification process, pain management specialists are typically the best options when seeking relief for continual pains.

Many medical professionals who specialize in pain management focus on chronic conditions, such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, sciatica, and migraines. However, they can also help you find relief from other pain-inducing conditions, such as poor posture or a herniated disc. Additionally, many doctors who specialize in pain management also help patients find relief following auto accidents or workers’ compensation incidents.

Depending on the pain you are experiencing and the prescribed methods of treatment, you may be referred to one of our specialty clinics. No matter what condition you may be experiencing, our pain management specialists will prescribe the best treatment option for your needs, in order to help you find some comfort and relief. As your condition changes or improves, your treatment plan will change to ensure you consistently receive the best treatment options for your health and wellness.
