Pain Disorders Q & A

What are pain disorders?

Pain disorders include any condition that causes chronic (long-lasting) pain. A few of the most common pain disorders include:

  • Migraines or chronic headaches
  • Lower back pain
  • Neuropathy
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Trigeminal neuralgia
  • Movement disorders
  • Neuromuscular disease
  • Vascular disorders
  • Central pain syndrome
  • Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS)

Uncharted Healthcare diagnoses and treats these and other chronic pain conditions.

What symptoms accompany pain disorders?

The severity, duration, and location of pain varies depending on the cause. For example, your pain may come and go or be constant. You may experience excruciating pain or a mild ache.

In addition to pain, you may have other symptoms, including:

  • Swelling
  • Joint stiffness
  • Tremors
  • Fatigue
  • Muscle weakness
  • Widespread muscle pain
  • Muscle stiffness or cramping
  • Pain radiating down an arm or leg
  • Loss of coordination
  • Changes in skin color
  • Tingling (pins and needles) or burning sensations
  • Hypersensitivity to touch or temperature

Pain disorders often cause insomnia and mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety.

How are pain disorders treated?

Pain disorders can be challenging to treat because chronic pain seldom responds to conventional medications. Even strong medications like opioids only provide short-term relief without improving your long-term pain.

The team at Uncharted Healthcare takes a holistic approach that encompasses all the aspects of your life that contribute to pain. You may need nutritional counseling, recommendations about exercise, or medical care for other underlying health conditions. 

Uncharted Healthcare also specializes in counseling and medication management for mental health challenges that may develop.

They directly treat your pain with advanced options such as:

IV vitamin therapy

IV infusions contain vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and medications that boost your immune system, improve energy, and relieve pain.

Ketamine infusion therapy

Ketamine is a safe anesthetic medication. When it’s used in low doses (subanesthetic doses), ketamine affects brain chemicals involved in pain, mood, and anxiety.

As a result, ketamine is a highly effective pain reliever that often produces rapid results. It also enhances your body’s natural pain relievers and reduces inflammation.

Your Uncharted Healthcare provider may recommend ketamine infusion therapy for neuropathic (caused by nerve damage) and non-neuropathic pain conditions, including:

  • Migraines
  • Back pain
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Shoulder injuries
  • Breakthrough cancer pain
  • Complex regional pain syndrome
