Joint Pain Treatments in Ohio | Alternative Therapies

Are you suffering from persistent joint pain, even after surgery? Before getting another invasive procedure, consider alternative treatments with Pain Zero. Our joint pain doctors in Ohio offer cutting-edge alternative therapies for post-surgical joint pain and general joint discomfort.

We also work with patients who are considering joint replacement surgery but want to explore other options to reduce their discomfort and avoid or delay major surgery and downtime. Before you talk to your surgeon about another procedure, come see us.

It’s not uncommon for patients to continue to experience pain even after getting a joint replacement in Ohio or another orthopedic surgery. In fact, about 20% of patients will continue to experience pain after a bone or joint surgery.

This pain can range from mild discomfort to significant pain. No matter your pain level, it can impact your quality of life. At Pain Zero, we specialize in helping people who have not experienced relief with surgeries, including:

• Foot and ankle surgery

• Knee and hip replacement

• Shoulder replacement

• Rotator cuff repair

• Spine Surgery

Persistent pain after surgery can happen from nerve, tissue, or organ damage, as well as from the bone or joint itself and the surrounding cartilage. Our team conducts a comprehensive exam and diagnostics to understand the root cause of your pain so we can successfully address it.

Pain Zero offers a variety of options for alternative joint therapy in Ohio. Our treatments include, but are not limited to:

• IV Infusions

• Nerve Blocks

• Pain Pumps

• Radiofrequency Ablation

• Regenerative Medicine

• Spinal Cord Stimulation

• Minimally Invasive Sacroiliac Joint Fusion

• Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Discectomy

• Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression

• Steroid and Trigger Point Injections

Many of our treatments are non-invasive and target your pain at the source without the risks of surgery. Although you may find pain relief with one treatment option, some patients benefit from a combination of therapies for a comprehensive approach to pain management.

Let our physicians target your pain at the source so you experience lasting relief without invasive surgery and months of downtime.

Patients choose Pain Zero because we are a compassionate team of professionals offering advanced pain management treatments with minimal downtime. Some treatments even allow you to return to your normal activities that same day.

We specialize in treating patients who are experiencing joint discomfort, whether they have had surgery and are facing another one or haven’t yet had a joint replacement and want to consider other options.

Our team works closely with you to tailor your treatment to your specific needs, pain level, and medical history. Before talking to your surgeon about revision surgery or additional joint replacements, schedule a consultation with Pain Zero.

1. Can alternative pain management therapies help me avoid joint replacement surgery?

Every patient is different. In some cases, our therapies can help patients avoid joint replacement surgery. For others, the results they see may not be significant enough to rule out surgery. We tailor our approach to ensure you have the best chance of reducing your pain without surgery.

2. What is the expected recovery time for alternative treatments vs. surgery?

The recovery time for treatments varies. For example, trigger point injections and steroid injections typically allow you to return to normal activities within one to two days. Others, like radiofrequency ablation, may have a few days of soreness. Joint replacement surgeries typically require a minimum of 6-8 weeks of recovery and up to a year for full healing.

3. Will pursuing alternative therapies now affect my eligibility for surgery later if needed?

In the majority of cases, no. Your eligibility for future surgery will depend on the alternative treatments you choose and your unique condition, but most patients can still pursue surgery down the line if needed. Pain management therapies can also help patients delay surgery if needed.
