Based on our experience in treating over 1000 patients with radiculopathy and radiating pain in the arms or legs (symptoms associated with spinal disk herniation) Advanced Interventional Pain Center can emphatically state that orthopedic spine surgery for spinal disk related pain such as but not limited to laminectomy, disk replacements and spinal fixation rods or plates is NOT required when the surgery is deemed elective and not urgent. Call 727-474-6507 to make appointments.

Based on evidence, large disk herniations start to regress by a few millimeters (mm) within 10 days of receiving our proprietary treatments. In this example below, a large disc herniation was found to be compressing on the lower part of the spinal cord called cauda equina causing severe pain symptoms in the patient (Left Image, red arrow). Within 10 days of a SINGLE treatment, the large disc herniation had regressed releasing the free floating fibers of the cauda equina (Right Image, red arrow). The patient not only got immediate pain relief but also effectively avoided surgical treatments, such as open laminectomy and the adverse events that may follow such surgical treatments. Additionally, multiple treatments and repeat injections are NOT required for this specific disc herniation, as the herniation will continue to regress without repeat treatments

By August 2024, MRI of the above patient showed complete resolution (dissolution) of the disk herniation with official radiology reading saying, “the previously visualized disk protrusion (herniation) is no longer visualized.”

Even after all surgical options including spinal cord stimulator options have been exhausted, Advanced Interventional Pain Center (AIPC) can still provide long term pain relief without the use of narcotic or similar addictive medications.

In many instances spinal cord stimulators or SCS are being placed when surgical treatments fail to make satisfactory improvement in pain symptoms. Unfortunately these devices like many other FDA approved devices besides causing more harm are found to be ineffective in providing the desired pain relief beyond 6 months and almost all of them fail before the 2 year period. Advanced Interventional Pain Center (AIPC) has successfully treated pain with conventional pain interventions in patients who failed to improve after SCS placements. Our pain center strongly advises against the indiscriminate placement of spinal cord stimulators. Combined with chronic disk herniation surgery, SCS placements have placed a huge burden on US healthcare while not improving the quality of life (QOL) in the long term.

The pain success rate also known as pain treatment success rate and pain relief success rate for any pain treatment is defined as the number of patients successfully getting rid of at least 50% of their initial pain symptoms after a specific pain treatment whether it be surgical, injection or other minimally invasive treatments such as laser treatments. An accepted rate is 50% of patients treated get at least 50% of their initial pain symptoms relieved. The latter is the gold standard of many clinical trials testing the effectiveness of numerous pain treatments. We are proud to note that at Advanced Interventional Pain Center, our success rate after treating 3000 individual patients without using any narcotics or addictive medications, is over 90% of patients getting 100% or complete pain relief with only 10% of the patients getting less than 100% or incomplete pain relief. Our pain treatments provide long lasting pain relief in a variety of conditions and permanent pain relief in certain tough to treat pain conditions for which there is no known cure nationally or internationally.

Advanced Interventional Pain Center along with Prime Interventional Pain Consultants provide a variety of pain interventions to patients injured in automobile accidents that suffer from pain especially from pain related to disk herniations. Disk herniations are quite common after MVA impact along with spinal facet injury. These cause long term effects including disabling pain symptoms and reduction of function in those were relatively healthy and pain free before the auto injury. A number of these patients are quite dreary of surgical treatments for disk herniations where there is no emergency to operate. At Advanced Interventional Pain Center, we provide compassionate and comprehensive care of auto injury patients who continue to have pain after exhaustion of conservative care modalities. In addition to getting rid of disk related pain using our proprietary injection techniques, resistant whole body pain that results from contusion (MVA impact) injury to spinal facets and non spinal areas can be effectively treated with our pain interventions without adverse effects or side effects and without the use of addictive medications. Note that individual results will vary. Call 727-474-6507 to make appointments. Our e-mail: referrals@inter-pain.com

Joint replacement surgery is being done frequently for chronic pain and chronic degenerative arthritis in the elderly. However joint replacements have not been helpful in providing long term pain relief and or improvement in function despite thousands of these surgical treatments done each year on a regular basis in the US and elsewhere. Pain relief and improvement in function following joint replacement surgeries in patients suffering from chronic joint pain have not been satisfactory. Despite the highly invasive surgical procedure and extended physical rehabilitation programs associated with them, most patients are unable to get any pain relief immediately after. Even if immediate pain relief has resulted after a joint replacement, any improvements have not been sustained beyond the 2 year time period.  Considering these facts, chronic joint replacement surgeries should be avoided when they are considered elective and there is no emergency to operate. At Advanced Interventional Pain Center, long term pain relief and functional improvement have consistently resulted with our injection treatments even in patients who have failed joint replacements. Note that individual results will vary. Call 727-474-6507 to make appointments. Our e-mail: referrals@inter-pain.com
