Abdominal Pain

​

Common Causes and Key Symptoms

• Nerve Entrapment Syndromes

  • Sharp, localized pain caused by compressed nerves, often following surgery or trauma.

  • Burning or cramping sensations that worsen with activity or prolonged sitting.

• Intercostal Neuralgia

  • Pain along the ribs, described as stabbing or radiating around the chest or abdomen.

  • Increased discomfort with breathing or torso movement.

• Post-Surgical Scarring

  • Persistent, cramping, or pulling pain at surgical sites due to fibrotic scar tissue impinging on nerves.

Our Tailored Therapies

• Xray Guided Nerve Blocks

  • Image-guided injections, such as celiac plexus blocks, to target and alleviate specific nerve pain.

• Ultrasound Guided Nerve Blocks

  • Precise, targeted injections that disrupt pain pathways in overactive nerves and provide long-term solution.

  • Botox injections to relax muscles in the stomach responsible for causing abdominal pain.

• Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS)

  • Advanced and minimally invasive therapy that works by sending gentle electrical pulses to your spinal cord, which blocks the pain signals traveling from your abdomen to your brain.
