Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to alleviate chronic pain by targeting specific nerves responsible for the discomfort.
Understanding Chronic Pain and Peripheral Nerve Stimulation
Chronic pain often results from damage or dysfunction in the peripheral nerves, which can cause persistent, debilitating pain that affects your ability to perform everyday activities. Conditions such as neuropathy, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), or nerve injuries can lead to ongoing discomfort that significantly diminishes your quality of life. When left untreated, chronic pain can lead to increased stress, depression, and a reduced ability to enjoy life. Peripheral Nerve Stimulation addresses the root cause of this pain by targeting the affected nerves directly, providing both immediate and long-term relief.
