From the front office staff to the nurses and Dr. Ahmad, my experience has be fantastic. They truly care about the patient and provide excellence at all levels. I moved from out of state. The 1st pain management group I saw in Charlotte was terrible. I was discouraged about healthcare for chronic pain in Charlotte. Then I found this group. Highly recommend them. Get ready to be greeted with smiles and genuine heartfelt care to assist you with your pain management!

Super professional office from booking an appointment the day before, to sending over the paperwork, to the Doctor and his staff. Normally I'd say that I can't wait to come back, but you know what I mean here. Thanks!

What is a trigger point injection?

Usman Ahmad | Nov 27, 2021

A trigger point injection is a pain management treatment we use to help ease muscle pain. For this treatment, a corticosteroid, or anesthetics are injected into the trigger point, or where all the painful knots are located. This is a very safe procedure that provides an effective relief to muscle pain. For more information on trigger point injections, come and see us in Charlotte, NC.

What treatments do you offer for knee pain?

Usman Ahmad | Oct 23, 2021

We offer two different treatments for knee pain. The first treatment is Genicular Nerve Block, which blocks nerve signals temporarily to the knee. The next treatment is Bursa Injections, which works by injecting a steroid medication into the joint. This treatment reduces inflammation within 2-3 days of treatment. We also offer Stem Cell Therapy, and PRP Treatment for knee pain. All treatments are non-surgical and opiate free. For more information on knee treatments, visit us in Charlotte, NC today!

PRP Therapy is a regenerative medicine treatment that we offer at our facility. It is used to treat mainly sports injuries and musculoskeletal conditions. It is a non-surgical procedure that uses autologous blood with platelets above baseline levels, which contain several growth factors.

Usman Ahmad | Oct 23, 2021

Yes, we do indeed offer stem cell therapy! We offer this specific treatment plan as a viable option to those not wanting to go through surgery or take opiates as their primary treatment plan.

It can take as much as 5 days for steroid injections to start working. Treatment is unique to every patient, but on average, it lasts three months. Your body may respond in a number of ways, so the length of time for which you experience relief may vary. For ESI and facet injections, the treatment lasts three months. Each patient receives a unique treatment, so the duration of relief depends on your body's response. For more information, visit us in Charlotte, NC and Fort Mill, SC.
