Your cancer pain management plan takes into account the location and severity of your acute or chronic pain, as well as the type of cancer you have.
The University Pain and Spine Center team offers several treatment options to ease cancer pain, so you can continue with your recovery. Your treatment plan may include:
The steroid injection could be a viable solution for patients with inflammation and pain caused by cancer. A steroid injection will provide powerful relief, reducing swelling around nerves and tissues affected by tumors or cancer therapies. As with other treatments, our specialists carefully evaluate whether a steroid injection is the right option for managing your symptoms.
Spinal cord stimulation is also available to manage cancer pain. This involves implanting small electrodes into your spine that deliver low currents of electricity into nerves. The device lets you control the currents with an external remote to disrupt cancer pain signals from traveling to your brain.
If you have chronic pain from a tumor pressing on your nerves, you may need surgery to remove all or part of the tumor. Following surgery, your University Pain and Spine Center physician can provide additional cancer pain management services during recovery.
If you need help and you think that you could benefit from cancer management services, call the University Pain and Spine Center office nearest you.
Cancer is a complex disease that causes cells in your body to divide continually and spread into the nearby tissues. Because it can develop anywhere in your body, there are many types of known cancers that can cause pain and other uncomfortable symptoms.
Not everyone with cancer experiences pain, but for those who do, it may be severe enough to affect their quality of life. This pain may originate from a tumor that presses on nearby nerves, organs, or bone.
You can develop pain due to treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. These treatments also suppress your immune system and may leave you susceptible to developing chronic pain and other challenging conditions. Conditions that we can treat with our tools and experience, such as a targeted steroid injection or other interventional therapies.
