Our Interventional Pain Department focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of chronic and acute pain disorders. We use advanced, minimally invasive techniques to pinpoint the source of pain and deliver targeted therapies to provide long-lasting relief.
Chronic pain is a complex condition that can severely impact every aspect of a person's life, limiting mobility, disturbing sleep, and affecting mental well-being. The Interventional Pain Department at Samrat Hospital offers hope and advanced solutions for patients suffering from persistent pain. Our multidisciplinary team, led by fellowship-trained pain management specialists, focuses on accurately diagnosing the root cause of pain and implementing targeted, minimally invasive treatments. We treat a wide variety of conditions, including chronic back and neck pain, sciatica, arthritis, neuropathy, and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Our goal is to reduce pain severity, improve physical function, and enhance the overall quality of life for our patients.
Interventional pain management relies on precision medicine. We utilize advanced image guidance, such as fluoroscopy (real-time X-ray) and ultrasound, to precisely deliver medications or therapies directly to the specific nerves, joints, or tissues causing the pain. These minimally invasive procedures, which include epidural steroid injections, nerve blocks, and radiofrequency ablation, offer significant relief with minimal downtime, often serving as an effective alternative or stepping stone before considering major surgery. We view pain management comprehensively; our interventions are often integrated with physical therapy, medication optimization, and psychological support to ensure a holistic and durable approach to pain relief.
Targeted anti-inflammatory injections to relieve pain from herniated discs and spinal stenosis.
Diagnostic and therapeutic injections for arthritis-related back and neck pain.
A procedure that uses heat to temporarily turn off the nerve's ability to send pain signals.
An implanted device that uses electrical pulses to mask pain signals before they reach the brain.
Image-guided injections for arthritis pain in the knees, hips, and shoulders.
Injections to diagnose and treat complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) and neuropathic pain.
Treatment for painful knots in muscles (myofascial pain).
Regenerative medicine using the patient's own blood platelets to promote healing in injured tissues.
We invest in the latest medical technologies to ensure precise diagnoses, effective treatments, and the highest standards of patient safety.
It's a specialized field of medicine that uses minimally invasive, image-guided procedures (like injections or nerve blocks) to diagnose and treat chronic pain directly at its source.
We use local anesthesia to numb the skin and deeper tissues before the procedure to minimize discomfort. Most patients tolerate these procedures very well.
The duration of relief varies significantly among patients and depends on the specific condition and the type of injection. It can range from weeks to several months.
Yes, for many patients, interventional procedures can provide sufficient pain relief to delay or completely avoid the need for major surgery. It is often a key part of conservative management.
