FAQs About Pain Medicine

Q: What’s the difference between a sports medicine doctor and an orthopedic surgeon?
A: Sports medicine doctors specialize in non-surgical injury treatment, while orthopedic surgeons handle cases that require surgical repair. They often work together as part of your care team.

Q: Do I need to be an athlete to see a sports medicine provider?
A: No. Sports medicine is for anyone with activity-related injuries or pain—including kids, adults, and active seniors.

Q: Can sports medicine help prevent injuries?
A: Yes. Providers can assess your movement patterns, identify risk factors, and recommend exercises or adjustments to help prevent future injuries.
