HIP PAIN DOCTORS IN CHICAGOLAND

A New Level of Excellence: A Leading Provider of Effective, Non Surgical Hip Pain Treatments

Millions of Americans suffer from hip pain to the extent that it limits their ability to work, enjoy time with their friends and family, and puts a damper on their overall quality of life. While more common in elderly patients, hip pain also impacts young adults and active people because the cause of hip pain ranges a full spectrum from age-related disease, to injury, and more.

What many patients may not realize is that not all hip pain requires replacement surgery. While there are certainly situations where a surgical procedure is appropriate, it should truly be seen as a last resort. The double-board certified physicians at MAPS Centers For Pain Control recognized the need for a leader in effective, nonsurgical and minimally invasive procedures, and have helped thousands recover and regroup from hip pain without venturing down the surgical route.

Common Causes and Symptoms of Hip Pain

Whether the result of an accident, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, osteoarthritis, muscle strain, or another reason, hip pain can be felt through the back, lumbar, as well as buttock region, making it a complex point to diagnose.

Many patients report:

• Grinding pain

• Sensation of bone-on-bone

• Intermittent pain that subsides then returns

• Pain in the lower back

• Pain in the lumbar region

• Tenderness and swelling

• Pain or inability to sleep on one side

• Loss of motion

• Osteoarthritis

A trained physician must examine the patient closely to identify the underlying cause before determining an appropriate treatment plan.

Responsible Medication Management

While the opioid crisis has made a negative impact on reducing the pain of Americans, there is still a place for responsible medication management that is closely monitored and observed if it provides a benefit to our patients. Our physicians may recommend:

• Ethical Pain Medicine Management

• Over-The-Counter Medications and Supplements

Minimally Invasive Procedures

We are leaders in interventional pain procedures that use the latest in medical technology to intercept pain signals from reaching the brain. Rather than masking symptoms with medication, many patients find long-term relief from procedures such as:

• Radiofrequency Ablation

• Spinal Cord Stimulator Implantation

Physical Therapy

Many of our patients find positive results when they couple their treatment with a physical therapy program. Our physicians work with primary care physicians as well as experienced, qualified physical therapists to ensure our patients benefit from a comprehensive treatment plan. Our patients truly get the best care possible and may be recommended to a PT in our network should it be considered beneficial.
