Clinic opening

Conventional medicine recognized pain as only a symptom of disease. Therefore, it was believed that if only the causative disease was treated, the pain would naturally disappear. However, as medicine has developed and the quality of human life has improved, interest in pain itself has increased, leading to specialized treatment/research on pain.

One of the surprising facts discovered by modern medicine is that if pain persists, even if the causative disease disappears, the pain may remain and cause suffering to the patient. It has also been found that many of these pains can be treated by applying nerve blocks using various drugs and high-frequency lights.

The Pain Clinic is a specialized clinic specially established to treat a wide range of diseases that cause pain, such as chronic pain and cancer pain.

Target disease

1. Herpes zoster and postherpetic neuralgia

Shingles is a disease that causes itching, tingling, and blisters on some parts of the body and is caused by infection with the herpes virus. It mainly occurs in elderly people with weakened immunity, but it also appears in young people when fatigue and stress accumulate. It is often thought to be a simple skin disease and is treated with light treatment such as applying ointment, so treatment is often missed. If appropriate antiviral medication is not administered in the early stage and the accompanying pain is not promptly treated, it can progress to postherpetic neuralgia, a very serious complication. It's possible. Postherpetic neuralgia is a disease that causes severe pain that lasts from a few months to a lifetime. Our pain clinic is a pioneer in the treatment of these conditions.

2. Lumbar disc, cervical disc

This is a disease in which the disc, which is the cartilage tissue between the vertebrae, bulges out and puts pressure on the surrounding nerves. At the same time, strong inflammatory substances within the disc also flow into the nerves, causing severe inflammation. Although surgery has been actively performed in recent years, recent studies show that non-surgical treatment through injections is more effective than surgery unless it is paralysis or inability to urinate or defecate. At our pain clinic, we help you achieve a complete recovery from back pain by accurately administering medication to the problematic disc with a simple injection.

3. Spinal diseases such as spinal stenosis and ankylosing spondylitis

4. Pain after spine surgery

5. Headache and facial pain

The shoulder joint becomes stiff, which limits shoulder movement and causes a lot of pain. At our clinic, we use not only medication and injection physical therapy, but also manual therapy to not only relieve pain but also restore movement of the shoulder joint in the shortest possible time.
