Your Pain Management Specialist in Vienna
Prof. Gonano is specialized in providing competent diagnosis and treatment for patients suffering from acute, chronic or complex pain syndromes. Most of our patients look back on a long journey with uncountable consultations, but still suffer from lower back or spinal pain, headaches, neuropathic pains, fibromyalgia, tumor pains or chronic pains persisting or having returned after surgery. If “your” pain isn’t listed in this short enumeration or if you are helping relatives look for a pain-specialist, please give us a call. Together we will find out if we can be of any help.
Chronic Pains – Diagnosis and Therapy
Being confronted in my close family with the numerous problems a patient suffering from chronic pain has to deal with, led me to specialize in pain management and all its aspects many years ago.
Modern pain therapy requires years of experience and refinement. As a specialized discipline, it offers more than just “infiltration cures”. It is essential to discover the pain’s root, take into consideration the concomitant diseases and medications, and adapt patients’ expectations to realistic ones. After accurate diagnosis and consequent treatment, we often notice significant improvements after the second appointment. A sustainable relief of pain is expected after another three to four appointments. However, we might not always guarantee a 100% pain relief. In this case we will assist you in eclipsing the pain as much as possible, resulting in a new quality of life. This is how we define our claim “Living.Without pain.”
Your pain therapy will include the following elements, individually tailored to your needs:
- Detailed pain anamnesis
- Immediate diagnosis thanks to pre-scheduled x-rays and MRT appointments
- Ultrasound- guided infiltration (facet joint, sacroiliac joint, …) and/or nerve block
- Single-Shot Epidural Anaesthesia
- Neuromodulation therapy (Spinal Cord or Dorsal Root Ganglion Stimulation)
- Infusion therapy
- Laser treatment
- Radiofrequency therapy
- House calls
- Inpatient pain therapy
- Cooperation with experts in psychosocial counselling, physical therapy, etc.
