General Practitioners

• Headaches
• Arthritis
  Pain can come from the facet joints of the neck and are often caused by an arthritic condition generalized as cervical facet arthropathy. Facet joints are where the vertebrae (bones in the back) connect. While cervical facet arthropathy may be caused from rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis or other type of degeneration, simple diagnostic tests can be used to help diagnose the condition and define the treatment options.
• Fibromyalgia
  A type of chronic pain syndrome, myofascial pain is caused by injury or damage to the soft, connective tissue surrounding the muscles and organs. Myofascial pain creates sensitive areas in the muscles called “trigger points” that can create radiating pain throughout the muscle. While the exact cause of myofascial pain is not completely understood, there are conditions and systemic disorders that may contribute to the syndrome including connective tissue diseases, depression and fibromyalgia.
• Primary Care
  Physician assistants (PA’s) are highly trained, medical professionals who have completed a rigorous academic and clinical curriculum to practice medicine supervised by a licensed physician. PA’s conduct a broad range of medical and diagnostic functions that have traditionally been performed by both primary care and specialty care physicians. They frequently provide examinations, treatment and counseling. Certified physician assistants (PA-C) have graduated from a masters degree program accredited by the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant (ARC-PA) and also pass the Physician Assistant National Certifying Exam (PANCE).

Steroid medication can reduce swelling and inflammation.
