pain clinics
Chronic discomfort facilities
Pain clinics are medical facilities specializing in the diagnosis and management of chronic pain.
They typically employ multidisciplinary approaches—medication, physical therapy, psychological support, and sometimes interventional procedures like nerve blocks.
The term sometimes carries negative connotations due to disreputable clinics that overprescribe opioids: The state shut down several pill-mill pain clinics.
