The Pain Management Division of Seaport Orthopaedic Associates was created to treat individuals who suffer from acute and chronic pain. The cause of pain is specific to each unique patient. Therefore, we firmly believe that good pain management begins with a good diagnosis. Our approach is a multidisiplinary one; we consider the patient's total medical condition and emotional well-being.
Some of the acute and chronic conditions that Medical Pain Management Group of Seaport Orthopaedics is skilled at treating include:
- Low back and spine pain
- Neck, shoulder and upper extremity pain
- Headache
- Joint pain
- Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis
- Cancer pain

- Pain from chronic peripheral vascular insufficiency
- Myofascial pain and fibromyalgia
- RSD and chronic pain from nerve damage
- Chronic pain from sports and athletic injuries
- Chronic pain from work-related and automobile injuries
- Chronic pain from unsuccessful surgery
