Chronic neck pain & headaches — are they connected?

Yes, they often are.

Neck tension, poor posture, and nerve irritation can trigger headaches that start in the neck and move upward.
At Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management, we focus on finding the source of pain and helping reduce both neck pain and headaches - not just the symptoms.
Relief starts with the right diagnosis.

Sharp, burning, or shooting pain is often a sign that a nerve is involved - not just muscles or joints.

This type of pain may feel sudden, intense, or travel along a specific path, such as from the lower back down the leg or from the neck into the arm. It can be caused by nerve irritation, compression, or inflammation.

Unlike muscle soreness, nerve pain usually does not improve with rest or stretching alone. Treating the source of the nerve irritation is key to finding real relief.

If this kind of pain keeps returning or affects your daily life, it is your body’s way of telling you it is time for a proper evaluation and targeted pain management.

At Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management, we use targeted, non-surgical treatments that focus on the source of pain, such as:
• epidural steroid injections for back and neck pain
• facet joint and nerve blocks
• radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for longer-lasting relief
• PRP and regenerative treatments when appropriate

These approaches help reduce inflammation, calm irritated nerves, and improve function.

Neck and shoulder pain caused by posture is more than just muscle tension.

Poor posture places constant stress on the neck, shoulders, and upper spine. Over time, this can lead to muscle imbalance, joint irritation, nerve compression, and chronic inflammation — which is why the pain often returns, even after rest or massage.

If your pain worsens after long hours at a desk, phone use, or driving, posture-related strain may be the root cause.

At Dr. Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management, we focus on identifying the source of pain and creating personalized treatment plans to relieve discomfort, restore mobility, and prevent long-term damage.

Injections for pain relief can be very effective — when used for the right reason.

They help most when pain is caused by inflammation, nerve irritation, or joint conditions, such as back pain, sciatica, knee pain, or shoulder issues. These injections are designed to target the source of pain, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility — not just mask symptoms.

At Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management, injections are part of a personalized treatment plan, based on proper diagnosis and your specific condition. The goal is long-term relief and better quality of life, not temporary fixes.

If pain is limiting your daily activities, it may be time to explore your options.

• We start with a careful evaluation to identify the source of pain

An MRI shows structure — not always pain.

Pain can come from irritated nerves, inflammation, muscle dysfunction, or altered pain signaling that does not appear on imaging. That is why a “normal” MRI does not always mean nothing is wrong.

In pain management, the focus is on understanding how and why pain is happening — not just what shows up on a scan — to create a treatment plan that actually brings relief.

Nerve-related pain is different from muscle or joint pain. It often feels sharp, burning, tingling, or radiates down the arms or legs. This type of pain usually happens when a nerve is irritated, compressed, or inflamed.

Effective treatment focuses on identifying the source of the nerve irritation and targeting it directly. With the right approach, pain can be reduced, nerve function improved, and daily movement restored.

At Vadim Kushnerik Pain Management, we use personalized, non-surgical treatments designed to relieve nerve pain and help patients regain comfort and quality of life.

Muscle pain does not always come from the spine or joints.
Very often, the real source is tight, irritated muscle knots - also known as trigger points❗️

Trigger point injections are designed to relax these overactive muscles, reduce tension, and relieve pain right at its source. This treatment helps improve mobility, ease stiffness, and break the cycle of chronic muscle discomfort.

It is a targeted, minimally invasive option for patients dealing with persistent neck, shoulder, back, or muscle pain that does not improve with stretching or medication alone.

Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for Chronic Back & Neck Pain

If chronic back or neck pain has not improved with medication or physical therapy, Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) may help.

RFA is a minimally invasive procedure that uses targeted radiofrequency energy to block pain signals from irritated nerves. By treating the source of pain, many patients experience long-lasting relief.

RFA is commonly used for:
• Chronic neck and lower back pain
• Facet joint–related pain
• Pain that returns after temporary injection relief

📞 Schedule a consultation to see if RFA is right for you.

Burning or tingling pain: what it usually means

Burning or tingling pain is most often a sign of nerve involvement.
It happens when a nerve is irritated, compressed, or inflamed — commonly from the spine, a pinched nerve, or nerve damage.

Unlike muscle pain, nerve pain:
• feels burning, electric, or pins-and-needles
• can travel down the arm or leg
• often does not improve with rest

This type of pain needs targeted treatment — not just pain relief.
