Pain is the common denominator of countless disorders, diseases, conditions and injuries, that the majority of people experience at some stage in their lives. Pain can be short-lived, or can go on indefinitely (for many years or even a lifetime). But these days, thanks to global research and innovations in treatment, there is light at the end of the tunnel as long as you are under the care of a Pain Specialist (a medical doctor who has received substantially more medical training and practical hospital/clinic experience than a general practitioner).

The London Pain Clinic specialises in the management of:

• Head & Face Pain

Common Painful Conditions Treated By Our Leading Pain Doctors

These incorporate:

• Arthritis and joint and muscle conditions/injuries: these include various forms of arthritis (e.g., gout and osteoarthritis), both of which generate severe joint pain. Moreover, orthopaedic injuries (including frozen shoulder) restrict mobility and result in stiffness and pain
• Autoimmune disorders: this include conditions such as Crohn’s disease and Lupus, both of which trigger the immune system to attack the body
• Back injuries: these include sciatica, herniated disks, and other back issues which are commonly linked to pain and reduced mobility
• Long-term pain disorders: these include a number of conditions such as central pain syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and fibromyalgia – all of which can generate widespread pain all over the body
• Endometriosis: this is a painful condition which is brought about by the uterus lining growing outside the uterine walls. It can generate severe abdominal pain
• Facial pain: this can be caused by certain conditions, including dental irregularities (such as an abscessed tooth, or trigeminal neuralgia (TN)
• Headaches: these include cluster headaches and migraine, both of which generate neck and head pain
• Urinary tract issues and kidney stones: these include painful bladder syndrome (interstitial cystitis); and pelvic pain and pressure due to the passing of kidney stones in the urine
• Neuropathy (nerve damage): this can result in tingling, stinging and pain. A common form of neuropathy which is regularly treated by Pain Specialists, is carpal tunnel syndrome

Types of Pain Treated at the London Pain Clinic

Patients experience different types of pain due to an accident, disease or condition. Moreover, some patients suffer from post-surgery pain. Also, in addition to the aforementioned, some patients may be in pain due to an unknown cause. – And this is why booking a consultation with a highly experienced Pain Specialist who can give you an accurate diagnosis, is so essential.

The Four Main Pain Categories

These include:

• Acute Pain: this describes a sharp pain which stems from a disease, condition or injury (e.g., a burn, muscle spasm, bone fracture, shingles, appendicitis and so on). Once you have received treatment from one of our Pain Doctors, then in most instances you are likely to start feeling better right away
• Chronic Pain: this refers to pain which derives from untreated disease or injury, and conditions such as neuropathy (nerve pain), fibromyalgia, and arthritis; all of which have been present for a minimum of six months or more
• Neuropathic Pain: this describes issues with the nervous system, that as a result, bring about nerve pain (neuropathic pain). This occurs when the nerves mistakenly transmit pain signals to the brain (even when they are not damaged). This category of pain is common with patients who suffer from HIV, MS (muscular sclerosis), and diabetes
• Nociceptive Pain: this relates to the endings of various nerve cells (nociceptors) transmitting pain signals to the brain as a result of an active injury. Examples include: pulling a muscle, a knock on the head, or breaking bone. This category of pain can be long-lasting or sudden and short-lived. Moreover, it can impact the musculoskeletal system (somatic pain), or the internal organs (visceral pain)

Get Started on a Personalised Treatment Plan Right Away

The London Pain Clinic attracts patients not just from the UK, but also from overseas. This is due to the severe shortage of renowned Pain Specialists who have the necessary expertise and vast experience in the fields of Pain Medicine and Hospital Consultations in Specialist Pain Departments. For so long, patients with conditions such as fibromyalgia, have been turned away by general practitioners simply because they do not fully understand this unbearable condition; have not studied the latest research; and do not have the clinical experience that is needed to give an accurate diagnosis, along with beneficial treatments and therapies.

All our Pain Doctors are sympathetic and sensitive to each individual’s circumstances, and our sole aim is to help you get back to your best self as soon as possible.
