Pain management doctors in Riverview treats various pain problems from a sudden pain such as headache to a long-lasting, chronic pain such as low back pain. Some patients are making multiple visits at the IPS pain clinic, while others get relief from the first day due to their pains. Pain management doctors in Riverview fall into three main groups based on injuries they treat, such as tissue injuries, nerve injuries, and a mix of tissue and nerve injuries.
Tissue injuries, also known as soft tissue injuries, mostly arise during sports, exercise activities, and simple everyday activities. The most common soft tissues injured are muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Some of the most common soft-tissue injuries are sprains, strains, and contusions, as well as tendinitis and bursitis. Pain management doctors in Riverview treat Arthritis conditions such as Osteoarthritis, which wear and tear in the large joints like knees, hips, and Rheumatoid arthritis, which causes autoimmune reactions in small joints like fingers and wrists, also belong to this category.
Nerve injuries are the second type of pain treated by Pain management doctors in Riverview. Nerve or nervous system disorders are causing different forms of pain such as stroke, Multiple sclerosis, Spinal cord injuries, and Neuropathies, which is nerve pain that arises due to shingles, HIV, and diabetes. Neck pains, back pains, and cancer pains belong to the mix of tissue and nerve injuries.

A Pain management doctor needs to understand the cause of pain before treating a patient. In cases like spinal fractures, physicians can quickly identify the cause, but it may be challenging to diagnose when it comes to chronic pain. In the initial appointment, our IPS Pain management doctors in Riverview will be assessing the patient’s current pain-related difficulties and medical history through an in-depth conversation to get to the bottom of the problem. For further assessments, Pain management doctors at IPS may ask when and how the pain started, in which set of activities the pain increases or reduces, and ongoing or previous treatments.
Once we completed the initial stage of assessing the patient, our Pain management doctors in Riverview will be undertaking a physical examination and a neurological exam using the latest technology. Things like pulse, respiration, heartbeat, blood pressure will be assessed by physical examination. Pain management doctors will be evaluating things like the ability to walk, muscle strength, and muscle tone through a neurological exam. Following tests will be done by our Pain management doctors in Riverview to determine the best treatment methods for patients in Riverview.
Once our Pain management doctors in Riverview concluded after undertaking necessary tests, they will be recommending a treatment plan. These treatments may take days or weeks, depending on the nature of the pain. However, Pain management doctors at Interventional Pain Specialists often use a wide range of nonsurgical treatments and physical treatments such as acupuncture, exercises, yoga, meditations, physical therapy, dietary changes to avoid painful surgeries.
