Neuropathy is a condition that affects the nerves, causing numbness, tingling, and pain in the hands and feet. The BEST Health System offers a variety of treatments to help manage the symptoms of neuropathy and improve the quality of life for patients. One of the most common treatments for neuropathy is medication, which can help control pain and improve nerve function. Medications such as gabapentin and duloxetine are often prescribed to help manage the symptoms of neuropathy.
At BEST Health System we also offer alternative treatments for neuropathy, such as nerve stimulation. Nerve stimulation, such as spinal cord stimulator treatment, can also help reduce pain and improve nerve function in patients with neuropathy.
Spinal Cord Stimulator Treatment at BEST
Spinal cord stimulator (SCS) treatment is an innovative and effective method offered by the BEST Health System for managing chronic pain. This advanced therapy involves implanting a small device near the spine that sends electrical impulses to block pain signals from reaching the brain. By interrupting the transmission of pain, patients can experience significant relief and improve their quality of life. This can help all types of neuropathy whether it is autonomic or diabetic neuropathy.
The SCS treatment at BEST Health System is tailored to the individual needs of each patient, ensuring optimal pain relief and comfort. The device is programmable, allowing patients to adjust the level of stimulation to suit their specific pain patterns and preferences. This flexibility and customization make SCS an attractive option for those who have not found relief with traditional pain management strategies.
At BEST, we offer patients diagnostic testing with the SCS device so they can determine whether it is the right option for them. If patients find relief with it, we can implant a permanent device.
Furthermore, the team of experts at BEST Health System includes highly trained physicians and specialists who are dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to patients seeking relief from chronic pain.
They work closely with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses their unique needs and goals. With the support of this knowledgeable and experienced team, patients can undergo SCS treatment with confidence, knowing they are in good hands.
