Orthopedic Pain Management Specialist

What is orthopedic pain management?

Orthopedic pain management is one of the innovative services available at Manhattan Medicine. The integrated group of board-certified specialists works together to help you gain control over your pain to get you back to doing the things you love.

Unlike traditional pain management, orthopedic pain management at Manhattan Medicine focuses on finding and treating the root cause of your pain to resolve the problem altogether. 

Am I a candidate for orthopedic pain management?

Your board-certified specialist at Manhattan Medicine conducts a comprehensive evaluation to determine if you’re a candidate for orthopedic pain management. During the evaluation, your provider asks detailed questions about your pain, including the underlying cause, the severity of your discomfort, and how it affects your quality of life. 

Your provider performs a physical and neurological exam and runs diagnostic tests such as X-rays or an MRI to find the true cause of your pain. Manhattan Medicine uses advanced diagnostic testing to get to the source of your painful condition.

Finding the root cause of your pain ensures you get the most effective treatment. Manhattan Medicine provides care for back pain, neck pain, arthritis, and joint pain. 

The private medical practice also specializes in sports medicine, treating sports injuries that may also benefit from orthopedic pain management. 

What are some orthopedic pain management treatments?

The orthopedic pain management treatments at Manhattan Medicine are non-surgical interventions that, by design, solve the root cause of pain, rather than block it with pain killers.

Orthopedic pain management may include:

• Physical therapy
• Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment
• Orthobiologic cellular therapy
• Botox® injections
• Orthopedic stem cell injections
• Osteopathic manipulation
• Spinal injections
• Nerve blocks
• Acupuncture
• Spinal decompression
• Chiropractic care

The specialists at Manhattan Medicine customize your orthopedic pain management plan to best meet your needs. Your specialist may use a combination of therapies to help you get the best relief.

Some patients are surprised when they get pain relief from a previously failed treatment after combining it with another therapy. 

For injections, the orthopedic pain management physicians use advanced real-time ultrasound and X-ray imaging to guide the treatments, making them more accurate and effective than traditional approaches. 

For long-term pain relief, you need to treat the underlying cause of your discomfort. To start orthopedic pain management at Manhattan Medicine, call the office or book an appointment online today.
