Pain is one of the most universal human experiences — yet one of the most misunderstood. Two people can feel the same type of pain for entirely different reasons, and without understanding the true source, treatment becomes guesswork. At Genesis Wellness and Pain Clinic, serving Forney and Wichita Falls, we believe that accurate pain identification is the foundation of successful, long‑term relief.
Whether your pain feels like a dull ache, a burning sensation, or a sharp, stabbing twinge, every symptom tells a story. Our job is to listen to that story, uncover the root cause, and create a plan that restores your comfort and quality of life.
Pain is not one‑size‑fits‑all. In fact, most chronic pain falls into one of two categories — and knowing which one you’re experiencing dramatically changes the treatment approach.
Nociceptive pain occurs when the body’s tissues — muscles, joints, ligaments, bones, or skin — are damaged or inflamed. It’s the body’s alarm system, signaling that something needs attention.
Common causes include:
This type of pain often feels achy, throbbing, or tender. Treatments typically focus on reducing inflammation, improving mobility, and supporting tissue healing.
Neuropathic pain originates from the nerves themselves. When nerves misfire, become compressed, or sustain damage, they send pain signals even when no tissue injury is present.
Conditions that cause neuropathic pain include:
This pain often feels burning, tingling, electric, or sharp. Because the source is nerve‑related, treatments must target the nervous system — not just the surrounding tissues.
Understanding which type of pain you’re experiencing is essential. Treating neuropathic pain with therapies meant for tissue injury (or vice versa) rarely leads to meaningful relief.
At Genesis Wellness, we don’t guess — we investigate. Our providers use a thorough, multi‑step assessment to uncover the true source of your pain and design a plan that works for your body, your lifestyle, and your goals.
