How to Get to the Root of Your Neck Pain
Many factors can cause neck pain, ranging from strains, trauma, or an injured disc. Here’s what you need to know about the possible root cause of your neck pain and when to seek medical treatment.
Several factors contribute to cancer pain. Depending on the type, location, and stage of the cancer, the disease itself may be one source of pain. Cancer pain can also be a side effect of treatment, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation.
If you’re experiencing cancer-related pain, we can help. At Republic Spine and Pain, our pain management specialists offer cancer pain treatment at three convenient locations in Austin, Lakeway, and Georgetown, Texas.
Cancer is a complex disease, and many patients undergo multiple forms of treatment for months or even years, all of which can contribute to some form of pain. The good news is that like other forms of acute and chronic pain, cancer-related pain is also manageable.

Pain can also take an emotional and psychological toll during this challenging and often overwhelming time.
