Injured Virginia workers: options for treating chronic pain
Posted on Feb 27, 2010
A doctor at the Culpeper Surgery Center has great news for injured workers suffering from chronic pain as the result of an on-the-job injury. A multipronged approach to pain management may just give them the relief they’ve been seeking.
Dr. Susan Miller, a medical degree graduate from the University of Virginia, is also currently an assistant professor of physical medicine and rehabilitation at UVa. She is considered an expert in the treatment and diagnosis of pain. Not only do doctors like Miller aim to relieve pain, but they also seek to restore physical function without surgery.
By avoiding surgery, chronic pain suffers can stay out of the hospital and avoid costly surgical procedures that could lead to further complications. Long recovery times from surgery can also be avoided, allowing workers to return to work sooner.
A multidiscipline approach to chronic pain management can involve treatments like physical therapy, injections, patient education, psychological counseling, and more. Dr. Miller believes that taking the whole person into consideration is important to achieving meaningful results.
Workers in Culpeper and Warrenton are often at risk from disorders that can leave them with chronic pain. From office workers to construction workers, anybody can suffer a workplace accident that leaves them suffering. Knowing that there are options for treating painful injuries should come as a relief to many.
