Some conditions may have pain and associated symptoms arising from a discrete cause, such as postoperative pain or pain associated with a malignancy, or may be conditions in which pain constitutes the primary problem, such as neuropathic pains or headaches.
Dr. Mansell is also Board Certified in Anesthesiology and the Subspecialty of Pain Management from the American Board of Anesthesiology.
