PAIN MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES AND TREATMENT
Doctors who manage
pain and treat pain are frequently anesthesiologists. Anesthesiologists are doctors
of medicine (M.D.) or osteopathy (D.O.) who make certain that you are safe, pain-free
and comfortable during and following invasive and non-invasive pain surgery.
A limited list of the procedures performed at the Pain Management Center
at Dr. Ruiz office are listed to the left side of our website pages.
Many
treatments are available and vary from person to person depending on the diagnosis.
Treatments include one or a combination of medicines, therapies and procedures.
Your condition may be treatable with various prescription drugs. If
prescription drugs do not alleviate your symptoms then the most popular pain management
and pain treatments procedures are listed below.

Medications
| | ˇ Anti-inflammatory | | | ˇ
Muscle relaxants | | | ˇ Anti-Depressants |
| | ˇ Anti-Seizure | | | ˇ
Opiates (oral/direst spinal) | Prescription medication alone
may not be enough to manage certain kinds of pain and some medicines are more
effective in fighting pain when they are combined with other methods of treatment.
In some cases, the patient's pain condition may respond to pain management
treatment instead of medication. For many of our patients, certain therapies may
eventually replace the need for taking any pain medicine, or less of it, over
time.
Here are just some of the available treatments being used successfully
to treat pain patients. |
