How Can We Help You?
What Are The Causes Of Joint Pain?
Joint pain can happen because of injuries, arthritis, or other muscle and bone problems. It usually comes with stiffness, swelling, soreness, weakness, and less ability to move in that area. Also, where and how much it hurts can change based on what’s causing it.
Arthritis is a common reason for joint pain and can make joints feel tender, swollen, and sore. Tendinitis is when tendons get inflamed, causing sharp or burning pain in one spot. Bursitis happens when the fluid sacs around joints get swollen, making joints hurt and feel stiff.
The NextPain Care Approach To Managing Joint Pain
At NextPain Care, our mission is to provide effective and targeted pain management that prioritizes the patient experience through clinically proven methods. Guided by the core values of empathy, positivity, genuineness, and innovation, we are dedicated to practicing evidence-based medicine and following the highest standards set by leading authorities, including the World Health Organization (WHO) and the American Medical Association (AMA).
Our approach to managing joint pain is comprehensive and holistic, tailored to the unique needs of each patient. We begin with minimally invasive treatments designed to provide effective relief with minimal disruption to daily life. If these initial methods do not achieve the desired results, we can pursue more advanced treatment options. This approach ensures a continuum of care that adapts to each individual’s specific joint pain needs and may include treatments such as:
Mindfulness and Meditation for Chronic Pain
Mindfulness and meditation practices focus on training the mind to achieve a state of calm and awareness. These techniques can significantly help manage chronic pain, including joint pain, by reducing stress and anxiety, which often exacerbate pain perception. Mindfulness practices help patients shift their focus away from pain, potentially reducing the overall intensity of their symptoms.
Physical therapy is a cornerstone treatment for joint pain, involving exercises and techniques designed to improve mobility and strength. Physical therapists work with patients to develop personalized exercise plans that target specific joints, helping to reduce pain and prevent further injury. This approach is especially helpful for conditions such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, promoting long-term joint health.
A nerve block involves injecting an anesthetic near specific nerves to interrupt pain signals. This minimally invasive procedure can provide immediate relief for joint pain by targeting the affected area directly. Nerve blocks are often used for severe pain that does not respond to other treatments, offering temporary relief and allowing patients to participate in physical therapy and other rehabilitative exercises.
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a procedure that uses radio waves to generate heat and disrupt nerve function, thereby reducing pain signals from specific areas. For joint pain, especially in the spine or larger joints like the hip and knee, RFA can provide significant relief. This minimally invasive treatment is particularly useful for patients who have not found relief from other conservative methods.
Spinal cord stimulation involves the implantation of a device that sends electrical impulses to the spinal cord to mask pain signals before they reach the brain. This treatment can be effective for chronic joint pain, particularly when it stems from spinal issues or nerve damage. Spinal cord stimulation is an option for managing severe pain and improving quality of life, and it can be used as an alternative to some medications.
Corticosteroid joint injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly into the joint or surrounding tissue. These injections have shown to provide significant relief from pain and inflammation associated with joint conditions such as arthritis. Steroid injections are often used when other treatments, such as physical therapy and medications, are not sufficient to control pain.
