Chronic pain affects many adults in the United States, but there are options for treating your pain at the source. You no longer have to resort to masking your pain with medication. Instead, learn what Midsouth Spine & Pain Associates offers to relieve your chronic pain and help you get on with life!

Non-medicated treatments

Opioids like fentanyl, morphine, and oxycodone can be used to relieve chronic pain in adults. However, in recent years, opioid use has grown into a public health concern because they can be addictive and have long-term risks and side effects. Because of this, non-medicated treatments are on the rise and used as a first line of defense to help relieve chronic pain in the neck, spine, and major joints like the shoulders, hips, and knees. Non-medicated treatments may include physical therapy, occupational therapy, nerve blocks, spinal cord stimulation, and balloon kyphoplasty for vertebral fractures.

Injection therapy

Injection therapy is an interventional pain-relieving modality that provides long-term relief for adults. These injections can be administered directly into major joints, such as the knees, hips, and shoulders, and some may be injected into the spine or muscle tissue.

Using either fluoroscopic (a type of imaging device similar to an x-ray) or ultrasound as a guide to administer the injection to the targeted area, injection therapy focuses on disrupting the pain signals to the brain. Injections often include an anesthetic and a corticosteroid to help decrease inflammation and lessen or eliminate pain. Join injection therapy may also include a hyaluronan substance to help preserve soft tissue like cartilage or synovial fluid.

Does Midsouth Spine & Pain Associates offer medication for pain relief?

Yes, MSSP offers medication to help with chronic pain, although it is often paired with interventional pain-relieving modalities as well. While pain medication may be prescribed in certain instances of chronic pain, we do not believe that it should be relied upon as the primary and only solution. Our pain relief doctor near Jackson, TN will consult with you and recommend interventional pain relief modalities that are best suited for your situation and may recommend pain medication as part of your treatment plan.

Who should consider pain management therapy?

Adults over the age of 18 who experience pain in their joints, neck, or spine either daily or most days for longer than six months may benefit from pain management therapies at Midsouth Spine & Pain Associates in Corinth. At MSSP, we focus on treating the problem at the source through minimally invasive therapies. Often, patients benefit most from a combination of therapies.
