At Rush Pain Center, we offer a wide array of pain management services designed to address different types of chronic pain. Our goal is to provide effective and long-lasting relief, enabling our patients to lead more active and fulfilling lives.

Interventional Pain Management

Interventional pain management involves minimally invasive procedures aimed at reducing pain and improving function. Dr. Jaycox specializes in various interventional techniques, including:

Epidural Steroid Injections

These injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly to the source of pain, providing significant relief for conditions such as herniated discs and spinal stenosis.

Nerve Blocks

Nerve blocks are targeted injections that interrupt pain signals, offering relief for conditions like neuropathy and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS).

Radiofrequency Ablation

This procedure uses heat to disrupt nerve function, reducing pain from conditions such as arthritis and chronic back pain.

Medication Management

Medication management is a crucial component of our pain management strategy. Dr. Jaycox carefully evaluates each patient's condition and prescribes medications that effectively control pain while minimizing side effects. We prioritize safety and work closely with patients to find the most appropriate medication regimen.
