Understanding Your Pain
The first step in managing your pain is understanding it. Our team of expert physicians will conduct a thorough medical history and physical exam. We review all available diagnostic imaging and labs, such as x-rays, MRIs, and CT scans, to fully understand your disease and identify the cause of your pain.
Causes of Cancer Pain
Cancer pain can be caused by the disease damaging your body or organs directly, or by cancer blocking critical parts of your intestines, lymph nodes, or blood vessels. Pain can also result from the treatments used to eliminate your cancer, such as surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiation. In some cases, reduced physical activity during or after treatment may lead to muscle pains and aches. For all these causes, there are measures that can be taken to address the cause of the pain and make your pain manageable.
