Pain Management

“With the use of image-guided pain injections, I am able to get the least amount of medicine in the exact place it is needed. You can’t do that with pain pills.”

Traditional Pain Management’s primary goal is the decrease your pain enough so that you can tolerate rehabilitation. Pain management provides extra help and support to joints and tissues that are not healing on their own. Common techniques include the use of numbing injections, anti-inflammatory injections, or medication and, radiofrequency ablation for nerve pain. When the body is suffering from too much pain and inflammation or if the nerves are overactive most patients are not able to tolerate physical therapy, myofascial release, or chiropractic care.

With the use of a digital x-ray camera called fluoroscopy, Dr. Adam Weitzman can safely target the tiny joints of the spine as we as larger joints like the knees, shoulders, hip, elbows, wrists, hands, ankle, and feet. Dr. Adam Weitzman commonly injects, pain-blocking medicine, anti-inflammatory medicine, or regenerative medicine into knotted muscles, inflamed or torn tendons, and arthritic joints.
