Pain Management Center

Pain management is the control of acute or chronic pain or discomfort. Pain medications may be underused due to misconceptions about tolerance, dependence and addiction. Other techniques include cryotherapy (cold therapy), cognitive behavioral therapy, electrical therapy, immobilization therapy (e.g., casts, braces), injection therapy and nerve blocks.
