Our bodies change as we age. This includes the following anatomical and physiological changes:
- Cardiovascular
- Pulmonary central nervous system
- Endocrine
- Renal
- Hepatic
- Immune
- Gastrointestinal
- Other overall body systems
Common conditions causing pain for the aging elderly include arthritis, menopause, and low testosterone or male hypogonadism. Our pain care specialists at Pain Zero will assess how well a patient is engaged in daily life, discuss their role in their own pain management, and consider the least invasive way to address pain in Central Ohio patients.
Treating Geriatric Pain
Physiological changes cause such conditions as arthritis, menopause, or low testosterone, generating pain in muscles and joints. Effective non-pharmacological approaches to reduce pain include physical therapy and interventional behavioral therapy, as well as educating patients and caregivers about treatment options. Other treatments include non-opioid and opioid medications, pain-modulating drugs, topical agents, and other innovative therapies aimed at reducing pain and swelling in the joints.
Permanent treatments of arthritis pain include:
- Radiofrequency Ablation
- Kyphoplasty
- Minimally invasive lumbar decompression (mild)
All treatments offer same day relief and walk out of the procedure area.

This is my first visit it went pretty good I felt relaxed with them and it seemed like he truly really wanted to help me to get my pain in order and I'm looking forward to my next visit till I see I can see where we go next on handling my pain shook my hand very polite very good doctor
Professional and pleasant staff. Dr J explained everything to me thoroughly. I’m very happy with his suggestion to help with my neck and back pain.
The staff and office are very friendly and hospitable. They are also on time and very knowledgeable and professional.Dr.’s T and Mekhail are both very upbeat and empathetic. I finally have found hope in dealing with pain. They are totally on it and the best thing was I had met with one and then later the other and they had spent time talking about how they could help me. WOW! This is so contradictory to what my experience has been with the medical profession.
