According to the Institute of Medicine of The National Academies, 100 million Americans suffer from chronic pain. There are a number of different factors that can cause chronic pain, this can range anywhere from an injury to a more serious underlying issue.

Due to the fact that pain management is such a broad area of medicine, it requires a unique approach. At the Town Total Compounding Center we focus in on each and every patient’s unique needs to determine the best course of treatment for his/her pain. We make it our priority to provide alternative approaches for managing our patients' pain.

A 2006 survey of 303 patients suffering from chronic pain reported that more than half of pain sufferers (51%) felt that they had little or no control over their pain. Fortunately, compounded pain management medications allow patients to manage their pain in a safe and effective way. At the Town Total Compounding Center we assess each patient’s situation and then execute a treatment plan, customizing their pain medications to provide maximum efficacy. We can combine a variety of medications and create unique dosage deliveries to target and treat pain right at the source of the issue.

Just as a shoe is purchased to fit your foot correctly, medications intended to treat conditions of the foot should fit your specific needs. Not everybody wears the same size shoe, and the same goes for medicine. At the Town Total Compounding Center, we work closely with each and every one of our patients and their podiatrist to determine the best medication to treat their condition.

There are several conditions and injuries that can affect the function and comfort of your foot. In fact, 90% of adults with arthritis and 25% of adults with diabetes suffer from problems with their feet. Whether the result is pain, or poor circulation, underlying conditions can cause issues with the feet or ankles. Common symptoms of conditions like arthritis and diabetes include, pain, swelling, poor circulation and neuropathy-caused insensitivity or numbness.
