Medical Treatment Houston
Peripheral Neuropathy
The discomfort from peripheral neuropathy makes it hard to exercise, move about, or sleep. Sufferers stop exercising, which only intensifies their weakness. Diabetic patients often suffer from this problem, but other causes need to be properly addressed, like vascular damage. Some doctors implement treatments dependent on pain medications. These drugs simply mask your symptoms and may even include dangerous side effects. Our doctors concern themselves with improving health conditions and healing your body, so you don’t have to rely on drugs.

Trigger Point Injections
Trigger point injections are used when a patient has developed persistently knotted muscles that cause pain. If this tightened muscle is ignored, scar tissue and permanent weakness can develop in the area.
A plant extract called sarapin is injected directly into the knot to enable the muscle to relax. Sarapin has both pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties. Thus it provides a solution to chronic pain resulting from these tight knots. Tight points in the arms, legs, lower back, and neck respond best to trigger point injections. Some types of headaches can also be relieved with these injections.
