Pain Management
If you suffer from acute and/or chronic pain, you suffer from more than just physical discomfort. You also suffer emotionally as a result of that pain. The goal of Merit Health River Region's pain management services is to decrease pain and improve your quality of life. We strive to get you back to work and daily activities quickly and cost effectively.
Some pain can be alleviated, while other types of pain cannot be completely eliminated, but can be treated and reduced. The goal is to reach the highest level of pain relief possible, based on each individual's condition.
The most common types of pain we treat include:
- Back pain
- Neck pain
- Pain that radiates into shoulders and/or arms
- Pain that radiates into hips and/or legs
- Sciatica
- Myofaciitis/fibromyalgia
- Certain types of headaches
Patients must be referred to us by their primary physicians. For more information, call (601) 883-6304.
