Long hours at a desk put extra pressure on your spine and make your muscles work unevenly. That is why stiffness and pain build up.

➀ Core muscles switch off, forcing your back to overwork.
➀ Tight hips pull the lower back forward.
➀ Slouching adds even more strain.
➀ Little movement = poor circulation and tired muscles.

πŸ”½ Good news
Short breaks, simple stretches, and better posture already help.
If the pain keeps coming back, a professional evaluation can find the real cause β€” and fix it early.

Chronic Back Pain: Why Treating the Cause Matters More Than Masking the Pain

Back pain can affect every part of daily life β€” from work to sleep. Many people rely on painkillers or quick fixes, but these only hide the symptoms for a short time.

At Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management, our goal is to find and treat the root cause of pain β€” whether it is a spinal issue, nerve compression, muscle tension, or inflammation.

Using advanced diagnostics and personalized treatment plans, we help patients achieve real, long-lasting relief β€” not just temporary comfort.

✨ Do not live with pain β€” understand it, treat it, and move freely again❗️

Back pain that just will not go away?
For many patients, the problem is not just muscle tension β€” it is inflammation pressing on spinal nerves.

That is where epidural steroid injections can help.
They deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly to the source of pain, reducing pressure, swelling, and discomfort β€” without the need for surgery.

Most patients notice relief within days, allowing them to move more freely and return to daily activities faster.

πŸ’¬ If chronic back pain is holding you back, schedule a consultation with Dr. Vadim Kushnerik to discuss whether this treatment is right for you.

That β€œpins and needles” feeling in your hands, arms, or legs might seem harmless β€” but when it happens often, it can signal a nerve issue.

πŸ‘‰ Common causes include:
β€’ Herniated or bulging discs
β€’ Nerve compression in the spine or wrist
β€’ Diabetes-related nerve damage
β€’ Poor posture or muscle tightness

Do not wait until the symptoms worsen β€” early evaluation can prevent long-term nerve damage and chronic pain.
Our team at Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management specializes in diagnosing and treating these conditions safely and effectively.

PRP therapy uses your own blood β€” separating the plasma that is rich in growth factors β€” to naturally reduce inflammation, speed up healing, and relieve pain.
It is especially effective for joint pain, tendon injuries, arthritis, and chronic inflammation, helping the body repair damaged tissues from within.

At Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management, we use PRP to help patients heal faster, move easier, and live pain-free β€” without surgery or long recovery.

Nerve block therapy is a targeted treatment designed to relieve pain by interrupting pain signals sent from specific nerves to the brain.
It is commonly used for chronic back, neck, or joint pain β€” especially when inflammation or nerve irritation is the cause.

By injecting a small amount of anesthetic (sometimes with steroids) near the affected nerve, patients can experience significant pain relief, improved mobility, and better quality of life.

Central Pain Syndrome β€” when the brain misfires pain signals.

This condition happens when the brain or spinal cord is damaged β€” often after a stroke, multiple sclerosis, or injury.
Even when there is no visible injury in the body, the brain keeps sending pain messages.

Patients may feel burning, tingling, or constant discomfort that does not match what is actually happening in the body.
Treatment focuses on calming the overactive nerves and helping the brain β€œrelearn” how to process pain.

🧠 Occipital Neuralgia – what does it feel like?

If you have ever felt sharp, shooting pain starting from the back of your head or neck and spreading toward your scalp or behind your eyes β€” it could be occipital neuralgia.

You might also notice:
β†’ Sensitivity in your scalp
β†’ Pain that worsens when you move your neck
β†’ Tenderness near the base of your skull

This condition is often mistaken for migraines, but it is caused by irritation of the occipital nerves.
If you experience these symptoms often β€” do not ignore them. The right treatment can bring real relief❗️

πŸ”Ή What is Dorsal Root Ganglion (DRG) Stimulation?

DRG stimulation is an advanced treatment for chronic nerve pain, especially in hard-to-treat areas like the foot, knee, or groin.

It works by sending gentle electrical signals to a specific group of nerves (the dorsal root ganglion) β€” calming pain signals before they reach the brain.

This therapy can significantly reduce pain, improve mobility, and restore quality of life for patients who have not found relief with other treatments.

At Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management, we use modern, minimally invasive techniques to help patients live pain-free again.

10/29/2025

Degenerative Disk Disease (DDD) is a common condition that happens when the spinal discs β€” the β€œcushions” between your vertebrae β€” begin to wear down with time.
This can lead to pain, stiffness, or numbness in the back, neck, or legs.

There are two main types of degeneration:
* Cervical DDD – affects the neck area, often causing neck pain, shoulder discomfort, or tingling in the arms.
* Lumbar DDD – affects the lower back, leading to back pain that can radiate down to the legs.

Although it is a natural part of aging, treatment can significantly improve comfort and mobility β€” from physical therapy and pain management to minimally invasive procedures. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Vadim Kushnerik πŸ”½

PRP therapy uses your own blood to help your body heal naturally.
After drawing a small amount of blood, it is processed to separate platelet-rich plasma β€” a golden fluid packed with growth factors.
β €
When injected into injured or painful areas (like joints, tendons, or muscles), PRP:
β–Έ Reduces inflammation and pain
β–Έ Speeds up healing of tissues
β–Έ Improves mobility and function
β–Έ Helps regenerate damaged cells
β €
It is a safe, natural, and effective treatment that supports long-term recovery β€” especially for patients with joint pain, arthritis, or sports injuries.
