Let Us Help With Your Pain Management Treatment
Cancer pain can stem from the disease itself, its treatments, or both—and for many patients, it can be one of the most physically and emotionally exhausting aspects of their cancer journey. At Lifespring Pain Management Center, we believe that no one should have to live in debilitating pain. Our experienced team works in close collaboration with oncologists to deliver safe, compassionate, and individualized care that supports each patient’s comfort and quality of life.
Understanding Cancer Pain
Cancer pain is not one-size-fits-all. It may present as aching, stabbing, burning, or pressure-like sensations and can vary significantly in intensity and duration. Cancer-related pain may be:
- Acute (sudden and short-term)
- Chronic (persistent over time)
- Breakthrough (sudden flare-ups that occur despite ongoing treatment)
Whether pain is caused by the tumor, treatment, or related complications, it is crucial to treat it with a multimodal approach tailored to the patient’s diagnosis and overall care plan.
Causes of Cancer Pain
Cancer pain can be attributed to several factors, including:
- Tumor growth that presses against bones, nerves, or organs
- Chemotherapy or radiation side effects such as neuropathy or inflammation
- Surgical pain from biopsies or tumor removal
- Infections, ulcers, or internal bleeding
- Emotional stress, which may heighten pain sensitivity
Collaborative care between your oncologist and pain specialist ensures that pain relief strategies are safely integrated into your ongoing cancer treatment.
Common Symptoms
Cancer pain can manifest in many ways depending on the type, stage, and location of the cancer:
- Sharp or shooting nerve pain
- Persistent aching in joints or muscles
- Abdominal cramping or bloating
- Jaw pain, headaches, or facial discomfort
- Nausea or pain triggered by certain medications
Symptoms may fluctuate throughout the day or suddenly intensify without warning (breakthrough pain). If you’re experiencing persistent or unexplained pain, it’s important to seek evaluation promptly.

Our approach to cancer pain is comprehensive and patient-centered, addressing both the physical and emotional burden of the condition.
