One of the most debilitating symptoms of cancer is excruciating pain , and it is quite common and can be frustrating among patients and long time cancer survivors due to being under treated or mismanaged. Pain can be a result of cancer itself or its treatment, or even a combination of both—and can have a variable time frame from short to long-lasting after the treatment ends. Cancer pain is unique, and every patient requires an individualized treatment plan to alleviate this pain. At IPSC, our aim is to improve each patient’s quality of life, minimize pain, and effectively avoid side effects like nausea, vomiting, sedation, renal and liver failure that result from medications. We manage pain with minimally invasive interventions using most modern technology without there being the risk of surgery or requirement of anesthesia or days of hospitalization. Our specialists assess the cause, severity, and type of pain which is the key to finding the most effective treatment as different types of pain like neuropathic,movement-related or chronic pain respond differently to treatment options.
