The pain often associated with orthopedic surgery and recovery from injury or surgery can hinder the healing process and make it hard just to get through the day. The physiatrists in Nassau University Medical Center’s Department of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation can help you find relief from musculoskeletal and spine pain through a carefully administered plan.
Using noninvasive procedures as both diagnostic and therapeutic tools, they can identify the underlying source of pain and help to alleviate it through medications, physical and occupational therapy, orthotics, psychological counseling, and direct injections into painful muscles, joints and tendons. Some of the commonly treated conditions include:
- Disc, Facet and Nerve Root Pain
- Failed Back Syndrome
- Lower-Back Pain
- Musculoskeletal and Myofascial Pain
- Neck Pain
- Occupational Injury
- Osteoarthritis
- Postoperative Pain
- Sciatica
- Sports Injuries
