What Causes Chronic Pain? — AMITA Health Neurosciences Institute

Chronic pain in the neck or lower back are among the most common complaints patients report having, says AMITA Health pain management specialist Ankur Dave, M.D. These issues are frequently caused by conditions such as disc degeneration, a pinched nerve in the spinal cord or arthritis in the neck or lower back. Chronic hip, shoulder or knee pain is also common among Dr. Dave’s patients.

If basic medications and therapies are not alleviating your symptoms, or if you are experiencing persistent pain after surgery, the AMITA Health pain management clinic can help. We can help manage your symptoms both before and after surgery, optimize your pain medications and ensure safety and comfort throughout treatment.
