Pain Management Doctor Referral

My primary sends me to a pain management specialist. I sat on the referral for a while because all of my understanding was that this type of doctor would manage the pain but not really fix the cause of the pain. The bump continued to grow and I was learning how to avoid situations that would cause the most pain. All of which included avoiding contact with Scott and the kids. I just couldn't see how that was going to work for very long. A friend of mine convinced me to give it a try because it could help me to get where I needed to be, with the right doctor.
