Complete Neck Pain Management

You’ve probably felt the uncomfortable neck aches associated with sleeping in an awkward position, but if your pain comes with numbness, tingling or weakness in your arm, you may have something more serious.

Neck pain occurs when the muscles, nerves, bones or discs in the neck structure are disturbed.

Shoulder Pain Basics

Shoulder pain is a very common complaint due to the shoulders being one of the most mobile joints in our bodies. Your shoulder is made up of a combination of several joints, tendons and muscles, all of which give it flexibility. Over time, this flexibility can produce pain due to stress on those same areas.

Any pain appearing at or around your shoulder can originate in the joint itself, or from any of the muscles, ligaments or tendons. It typically worsens with activities or movement of the arm and shoulder.

Common Causes

Many shoulder problems are usually caused by the breakdown of soft tissues in that area. Overusing your shoulder can cause the soft tissue to break down faster as you age. Manual labor and playing sports are two examples of regular activities that may cause shoulder problems. A few other common causes of shoulder pain include:

• Shoulder dislocation
• Sprains and strains
• Osteoarthritis
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Rotator cuff injury
• Separated shoulder
• Tendon rupture
• Torn cartilage

Whether the source of your shoulder pain is an injury or a chronic condition, a pain management specialist must accurately diagnose its source in order to create a customized treatment plan.

Pain Relief with Total Pain Care

Our pain management clinics in New Jersey are staffed with board-certified specialists who take a comprehensive approach towards diagnosing and treating your shoulder pain to get you on the path towards relief.

Chronic Joint Pain Relief

Chronic joint pain is something most people will struggle with at some point in life due to our joints wearing as we age. Joint pain is any sensation of discomfort or ache felt in the hips, knees, ankles, shoulders, elbows or other joint and can significantly reduce our ability to perform everyday tasks.

Our pain management specialists understand how chronic joint pain can impact your life. We provide interventional treatment options to manage your discomfort in order to help you return to doing the activities you enjoy.

Common Causes

Our joints allow our bones to move and are made up cartilage, ligaments and tendons. All of the moving parts in our joints can easily become inflamed with injury, a disorder or other chronic condition. This type of pain has many causes, with the following being the most common:

• Osteoarthritis
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Bursitis
• Gout
• Strains, sprains & injuries
• Poor posture

Whether the inflammation causing pain in your joints is from an injury or a chronic condition, a pain management physician must accurately diagnose its source in order to effectively treat it.

Your Source for Joint Pain Relief

Our pain management clinics in New Jersey are staffed with board-certified healthcare professionals who will assess your joint pain and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Nerve Pain

Nerve pain, also known as neuropathic pain, appears when the central nervous system is damaged or dysfunction occurs. Millions of nerves are linked together throughout our bodies, which make up our central nervous systems. Various medical conditions and injuries can affect your nerves and, consequently, cause chronic nerve pain.

It is a severe form of pain and those who suffer from it typically experience a shooting and burning sensation in their extremities as well as tingling and numbness at the source. Simple tasks such as walking or putting shoes on can become impossible with this condition, which can severely impact your overall quality of life.

Common Causes of Nerve Pain

Chronic nerve pain can stem from trauma like a spinal cord injury or a variety of diseases such as alcoholism, diabetes and cancer. Some other common causes include:

• Chemotherapy
• Multiple sclerosis
• Shingles
• Spine surgery
• Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (RSD)

One way to pinpoint the source of your chronic nerve pain is with an accurate diagnosis from Total Pain Care. Our pain management team provides an interventional treatment approach aimed at helping you manage your nerve pain symptoms.
