What We Do
Do you suffer from chronic pain, fatigue, or cognitive impairment caused by fibromyalgia? Do your symptoms cause you to miss out on activities you once enjoyed because you’re too tired or in too much pain to do any of them?
If so, you’re not alone. Around 4 million people suffer from this condition in the U.S. The good news is that there are options to help manage your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
At NextPain Care, we take a comprehensive approach to managing fibromyalgia, aiming to alleviate painful symptoms and improve overall well-being. Our focus is on helping you manage your condition.
How Can We Help You?
Fibromyalgia, a condition characterized by widespread body pain, often arises following a traumatic event like illness, injury, surgery, infection, or emotional stress. While the exact cause remains unclear, risk factors such as genetics, gender (more prevalent in women), and its association with conditions like osteoarthritis, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis play a role.
Patients frequently struggle to differentiate between fibromyalgia and neuropathy, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, and even fibromyalgia and chronic migraines.
Fibromyalgia impacts the central nervous system, disrupting the accurate processing of pain signals by your body. This often leads to persistent pain across various body regions.
Additionally, symptoms may include fatigue, sleep disruptions, and cognitive challenges such as concentration and mental clarity issues. In certain instances, heightened sensitivity of the brain’s pain receptors can provoke exaggerated responses to minor stimuli.
At NextPain Care, we provide precise and compassionate pain relief, enhancing the patient journey through proven clinical approaches. Guided by empathy, positivity, authenticity, and innovation, we adhere to evidence-based practices aligned with guidelines from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the American Medical Association (AMA).
Our strategy for fibromyalgia management is comprehensive and tailored to each patient. We begin with minimally invasive therapies to deliver effective relief with minimal disruption to daily life. If these initial treatments are insufficient, we explore more advanced options, ensuring a seamless continuum of care. This approach adapts to the specific pain needs of each individual, potentially including treatments such as:
Mindfulness and meditation are effective strategies for managing the chronic pain and other symptoms associated with fibromyalgia. These practices focus on cultivating a state of present-moment awareness and can help reduce the perception of pain by promoting relaxation and reducing stress.
Mindfulness techniques such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and guided imagery can help patients manage the emotional and physical stress that often accompanies fibromyalgia, improving their overall quality of life.
Trigger point injections involve the administration of a local anesthetic or corticosteroid directly into the trigger points, or knots of muscle, that cause referred pain. For fibromyalgia patients, these injections can target specific areas of muscle tenderness and pain, providing relief from localized pain and improving muscle function.
By reducing muscle tension and inflammation, trigger point injections can help alleviate some of the widespread pain and discomfort associated with fibromyalgia, making it easier for patients to engage in physical activity and other therapeutic interventions.
