Some of the conditions we treat
We are able to treat a wide variety of chronic pain conditions ranging from simple degenerative change through to complex neurological and hypersensitivity syndromes.
A herniated disc can press on and irritate nearby nerves causing both back pain and radiating pain which extends into the leg.
Pain from the coccyx, the tailbone, can make it difficult to sit and can be prolonged due to frequent exacerbation with normal activity.
Discs, the shock absorbers of the spine, wear over time and can start to become dysfunctional producing a deep seated lower back pain.
The progressive wearing of the spine occurs with age and activity. Injuries from earlier in life can trigger this process contributing to lower back pain.
Whiplash affecting the neck causes a combination of injuries including damage to facet joints and myofascial structures.
Surgical management improves anatomy and function. Some pain can persist afterwards due to the complex pathology that is present.
Injured nerves in the lower limbs or hands produce a burning sensation which is often slowly progressive and unrelenting.
Radiating pain, or referred pain, is often caused be irritation at or near the spinal nerves which manifests as a pain which spreads peripherally.
CRPS is a complex phenomenon which can be viewed as a dysfunctional healing response which persists too long.
Injuries to the muscles around the shoulder can produce inflammation which results in pain and impaired movement.
Migraines and headaches are a common problem with many and varied causes. Multiple triggers can often be present.
The long band of tissue extending down the outside of the leg may become inflamed and painful with injuries or repetitive movement.
An overgrowth of neural tissue between the bones of the foot can result in shooting nerve pain. This is often triggered with walking and movement.
An overgrowth of neural tissue between the bones of the foot can result in shooting nerve pain. This is often triggered with walking and movement.
Arthritis within the hip joint can produce a deep seated pain across the hip with radiation into the groin. Movement of the hip and weight bearing is often painful and restricted.
Where we practice
The pain doctors are based at Pindara Private Hospital but provide services across all of the main Gold Coast private hospitals.
