Opioid Medication Management Overview

When conservative methods are unsuccessful at relieving pain, some patients may need long-term opioid therapy and other types of pain-relieving medications. As one of the most rigorous pain clinics in Mississippi, our team uses medicine to help manage chronic pain related to cancer pain, post-traumatic pain, musculoskeletal pain and other conditions.

Our skilled team of board-certified, fellowship-trained doctors will evaluate your unique needs and carefully consider your medical history, functionality and any possible risk factors before prescribing medications. We also provide regular follow-ups to monitor your response and make any necessary adjustments.

Our Approach to Safe Pain Relief

Hattiesburg Clinic specializes in providing compassionate, individualized opioid management for patients suffering from ongoing pain. Opioids are powerful substances that require oversight but can be safely controlled. We understand the challenges and risks associated with extended use of narcotics, which is why we pride ourselves on always putting our patients first and providing a responsible structure for taking controlled substances.

Conditions Treated with Pain Medications

Many short-term pain conditions or acute injuries do not require extended use of pain medications. However, some conditions that may require long-term use of controlled substances may include:

  • Severe rheumatoid arthritis
  • Chronic headaches
  • Cancer or other illnesses
  • Back pain

If you have previously tried other methods for pain relief or have suffered several failed surgeries, you may be a candidate for medication management. Talk with your primary care doctor to see if pain management is right for you.

Alternative Pain Management Strategies

While opioids are an effective method of managing severe chronic pain, they are often only a part of a comprehensive pain management plan. With our multidisciplinary team approach, Hattiesburg Clinic’s integrated network of pain management doctors, anesthesiologists and physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists are proud to offer patients access to alternative treatments such as physical therapy, advanced interventional pain procedures and non-opioid medications to enhance their quality of life. Talk to your primary care physician to learn more.
