Acute Pain

Most of us are no strangers to pain. After all, pain is a part of life. Acute pain lets you know that you’ve been hurt and usually doesn’t last long. Acute pain lasts less than 3 to 6 months but this is still a long time to suffer. If you experience ongoing pain related to your soft tissues or muscle groups, schedule a consultation with Dr. Darlene Holland, D.C. of Central Virginia Chiropractic Center, Inc.


The main characteristic of acute pain is that it doesn’t last long. For example, if you burn yourself on the stove, the pain usually lasts up to a few days, if not a few hours. When the injury heals and you continue having pain beyond the time of expected recovery, that is when pain becomes chronic and that is what you want to avoid. Dr. Darlene Holland D.C. will be able to diagnose the cause of your pain and discuss treatment options with you.


If you have questions or concerns regarding acute pain management, please give us a call. To learn about services we provide at the practice, visit www.centralvachiro.com for more information. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Darlene Holland, D.C. of Central Virginia Chiropractic Center, Inc. in Lynchburg, VA, call 434-237-0413.
