Our pain clinic, led by Dr. Lee Jae-won, treats chronic pain, pain that lingers after surgery or injury, and pain that limits daily movement. We assess the cause first; options include prolotherapy injections and other non-surgical treatments, and injections are not given automatically.
How it works
- Consultation. Bring test results, imaging, treatment records and a medication list. Note the postures or times of day that make pain worse.
- Examination. We look for the cause and decide which tests are needed.
- Treatment plan. Injections such as prolotherapy, other non-surgical treatment, or further tests.
- Aftercare. Guidance on activity and exercise, and follow-up checks.
Who it suits
- Pain remaining after surgery or injury
- Recurring chronic pain in the back, neck, shoulders or joints
- Pain that limits daily movement
- People whose pain continued after earlier treatment
Risks
Injection sites may be sore, swollen, red or bruised for a short time. Tell us about drug allergies, infection and your medication, and seek review if pain or swelling worsens or new numbness or weakness appears.
Frequently asked questions
What should I bring to my first visit?
Test results, imaging, treatment records, a medication list and notes on what triggers your pain.
Will I get an injection straight away?
No. The cause is assessed first, and other treatment or tests may be better.
How many prolotherapy sessions are needed?
There is no fixed number. It depends on the diagnosis, the area and your response.
