What do Psychiatrists & Neurologists Specializing in Pain Medicine do?
A neurologist, child neurologist, or psychiatrist who provides a high level of care, either as a primary physician or consultant, for patients experiencing problems with acute, chronic, or cancer pain in both hospital and ambulatory settings.
Pain medicine specialists who combine Neurology and Psychiatry work together to diagnose and treat the complex physical and psychological aspects of acute and chronic pain, often coordinating with other health professionals.
They manage conditions like neuropathic pain and migraines by providing interventional procedures (nerve blocks, spinal injections), prescribing medications, and ordering therapies such as physical, occupational, and cognitive-behavioral therapy.
This multidisciplinary approach aims to reduce pain, improve function, and restore quality of life by addressing both the biological and mental factors contributing to a patient’s pain experience.
