Pain … such a tiny, simple word used to describe an incredible influence in your life if you suffer with it.
Pain is divided into three stages:
- Acute - an episode of pain lasting less than 3 months.
- Recurrent - repeated episodes of acute back pain symptoms.
- Chronic - an episode of back pain symptoms with a duration longer than 3 months
The purpose of our care at Vancouver Disc Centers is to alleviate your pain as swiftly as possible, train you in the skills necessary to potentially avoid recurrences, and offer you a solution to control the pain so that it doesn't constrain you and your life. All this starts with the identification of your pain.
