Break Free From Chronic Pain with Expert Nonsurgical Relief
Dr. James Nassiri and our experts at Westside Pain Specialists in Southern California are ready to help when you’re dealing with chronic pain that affects your daily life.
Constant or persistent pain interferes with virtually every aspect of life and living, including your sleep, mobility, mood, and ability to enjoy your days.
Pain management isn’t a matter of chasing symptoms. Instead, we start with a comprehensive evaluation of your pain condition. Our goal is to get your pain under control without relying on long-term use of pain medication or turning to unnecessary surgical interventions.
The sources of chronic pain
Pain has a wide range of origins, on its own or as a symptom of a condition, illness, or injury. Some of the more common sources of chronic pain include:
- Joint degeneration due to arthritis
- Neuropathy (nerve-related pain)
- Degenerative disc disease and herniation
- Spinal stenosis
- Musculoskeletal disorders
Effective treatment depends on identifying the underlying cause of pain whenever possible, so pain management includes steps to control pain at its source.
What is nonsurgical pain management?
There’s no single nonsurgical pain management strategy. We use a variety of evidence-based approaches that require no incisions.
We choose personalized approaches based on your underlying condition, symptoms, and treatment goals, reducing pain and improving function and mobility. Depending on your diagnosis, we match your plan with modalities like:
- Occupational and physical therapy
- Nerve blocks and targeted injections (diagnostic and therapeutic)
- Radiofrequency ablation
- Advanced treatment options such as regenerative medicine techniques
Pain medication may remain part of your management plan. But additional strategies can eliminate or reduce regular use of drugs as a cornerstone of pain management.
The role of the pain management expert
Dr. Nassiri is certified in anesthesiology and pain management, focused on diagnosing and treating complex chronic pain conditions. His knowledge and experience provide the scope needed to personalize pain management to each patient.
Targeted approaches save you time chasing down unnecessary procedures or testing, honing in on what works to limit the impact of pain on your daily life.
Surgery for pain conditions should always be a later-stage decision. Effective nonsurgical pain management can often help your body heal itself, always a preferred alternative to going under the knife.
When to seek care for chronic pain
Everyone has their own level of pain tolerance, so the decision to seek treatment is up to you. Consider visiting Dr. Nassiri and our team when you’re dealing with:
