“Algology is briefly the science of pain, and it is a scientific study that applies medical, drug therapy or interventional needle treatments to the painful area. When patients come to us with pain, it is the department that investigates the source of their pain, and after researching it, they give drug treatment or injection treatment when necessary, according to the results. The patients who will apply to us are those who have low back pain, neck pain, back pain, joint pain, pain due to joint calcification, cancer pain, headaches. Of course, our patients are directed to us by the specialists of the main branches after applying to the main branches before. In Algology, step therapy is an important treatment method for us. What do we mean by step therapy? Medication was administered to the patient, and if the patient did not feel relief despite the drug treatment, we apply the needle treatment, which we call interventional. If we give an example of needle treatment; Our patient applied to us with the diagnosis of herniated disc. He is a patient that we call a surgical indication, that is, he will not have surgery, but he has chronic low back pain. . If we could not provide relief with medication in this patient, then, as you can see in the back, we make injections in our unit, accompanied by a mobilized x-ray device, in order to relieve the edema, that is, the collected water, in the region of our patient's lumbar hernia.
In the same way, we apply needle treatment to patients who have undergone surgery due to a herniated disc, but still have pain, and relieve them from pain.
