Issues We Treat
Arthritis
Arthritis is a joint disorder which causes inflammation, as well as a whole host of symptoms. The area where two joints meet can become inflamed and develop arthritis. When this happens, patients begin to report joint pain and other common symptoms. More than 100 types of arthritis exist; degenerative osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout are the most common.
Back Pain
Back pain is a common condition that can either be acute or chronic. If it comes on suddenly and lasts 3 months or less, it can be categorized as acute pain. However, if back pain lasts longer than 3 months and causes long-term health issues, it can be categorized as chronic pain. Back pain is common in adults ranging in age from 35 to 55. However, back pain can affect anyone at any age. It has to do with the way the muscles, bones, and ligaments work together in the back region.
Cancer Pain
Cancer pain is due to the cancer itself, the spread of the cancer, or cancer treatments. Oftentimes, patients who are undergoing intense chemotherapy treatment or patients who have cancer that has spread to other parts of the body experience a variety of painful sensations.
