Will physical therapy or injections even work if the real problem is a side effect?

If pain is truly caused by a medication side effect, physical therapy and injections may offer partial or temporary relief, but they won’t fully solve the problem.

However, many patients don’t have just one cause — pain often comes from a combination of:

• Medication reactions
• Muscle imbalance
• Joint or disc degeneration
• Nerve irritation
• Old injuries

This is why a thorough evaluation is essential.
At Medici, we determine:

1. Is the pain mechanical or structural?
2. Is inflammation or nerve irritation involved?
3. Could medication be contributing?
4. What is the least-invasive path to relief?

Once we identify the source, treatments like physical therapy, injections, regenerative medicine, or medication adjustments can become extremely effective.
