CAN MEDICATIONS AND PAIN PILLS HELP ME GET BETTER?

Medications may mask the pain for a few hours, but they do not aid your body's ability to heal itself, and may hinder the healing process. Medications cannot correct the soft tissue damage that is caused by auto accidents. If you are only taking pills, irritated nerves will continue to cause pain, suffering, and the problems listed earlier. Therefore, the adverse effects of your injuries will continue to plague you until you seek treatment. In certain situations we will prescribe medication; however, pain medications alone will only mask the symptoms and not treat the problem.  They should be utilized to decrease your pain during the treatment process and allow you to give maximum effort to getting better in the office.  Our pain management doctor will aid us in your journey to get better.
