Struggling with Chronic Pain? Discover Interventional Pain Management

Are you or someone you know dealing with chronic pain that just won't go away? In this video, Dr. Vineetha G Gopal, International Pain Specialist at RheumaCARE, explains the concept of Interventional Pain Management.

By targeting the source with minimally invasive injections, we can provide significant relief for patients who haven't found success with physiotherapy or medication alone.

In this video, you’ll learn:

What Interventional Pain Management really is.

How it differs from surgery and standard painkillers.

The role of precision imaging in treating chronic pain.

Morning Stiffness vs. Mechanical Pain: Distinguishing Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis | Dr. Glaxon Alex

Do you experience joint pain and stiffness? This video, featuring Dr. Claxon Alex (Rheumatologist, RheumaCARE, Thiruvananthapuram), helps you understand the crucial difference between Morning Stiffness (typical of Inflammatory Arthritis like Rheumatoid Arthritis) and Mechanical Pain (common in Osteoarthritis).

Dr. Glaxon Alex explains that Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) primarily affects the joints (especially the small joints of the hands and feet initially) and presents with early morning stiffness and joint swelling. He emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and prompt treatment for RA, noting that timely intervention can prevent disability and, in many cases, lead to medication being stopped. If you notice persistent joint pain, swelling, or stiffness, consult a Rheumatologist immediately to take charge of your joint health.
