Expertise in Pain Management Surgery: Enhancing Quality of Life
Living with chronic pain can be debilitating, affecting every aspect of one's life. However, advancements in medical science have opened new doors for those seeking relief. Pain management surgery offers hope to patients by addressing the root cause of their discomfort. At Our Lady of the Lake Surgical Hospital, we take pride in our expertise and comprehensive approach to pain management surgery. This blog post aims to shed light on some of the procedures we specialize in, the benefits they offer, and the impact they have on patients' lives.
Spinal Cord Stimulation: Empowering Patients to Reclaim Their Lives
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) is a procedure that involves implanting a small device near the spinal cord to deliver electrical impulses. These impulses disrupt the pain signals, providing relief for patients with chronic pain conditions. The benefits of SCS are numerous, including improved pain control, reduced reliance on medication, and enhanced quality of life. Don't just take our word for it; hear from our patients who have experienced life-changing results with SCS.
Nerve Blocks: Targeted Relief for Specific Pain
Nerve blocks are a minimally invasive procedure that involves injecting medication near specific nerves to block pain signals. This approach provides targeted relief for conditions such as chronic migraines, neuropathy, and joint pain. Our dedicated team at Our Lady of the Lake Surgical Hospital has witnessed remarkable outcomes with nerve blocks, allowing patients to regain control over their lives and enjoy activities they once thought impossible.
Radiofrequency Ablation: Disrupting Pain Signals
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a procedure that uses heat to disrupt the pain signals from targeted nerves. By applying controlled heat to the affected area, RFA can provide long-lasting relief for patients suffering from chronic pain conditions. The success stories of our patients who have found respite from their pain through RFA inspire us to continue our commitment to excellence in pain management surgery.
Intrathecal Pump Implants: Targeted Medication Delivery
Intrathecal Pump Implants involve the placement of a small pump under the skin that delivers medication directly into the spinal fluid. This targeted approach allows for precise pain management and reduces the need for oral medications, minimizing side effects. Our patients have experienced improved pain control, increased mobility, and a significant reduction in their reliance on pain medication with this innovative approach.
