Irritating throbbing
You may have noticed a constant, annoying, throbbing pain in your knee. You met with your doctor and were diagnosed with chronic pain or osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. You may have been prescribed several conservative therapies such as physical therapy and OTC medications that may provide temporary relief, so you can still enjoy your daily activities.
Woodpecker wear down
It’s been some time since your chronic pain/OA diagnosis, but your go-to therapies may not be cutting it anymore and simple tasks wear you down. You may start seeking help from other specialists who might recommend prescription NSAIDs, or maybe even opioids.
Direct arrow skirmish
You may have lived with the pain for some time now, and your doctor may be suggesting more invasive therapies such as steroid injections. But long-term relief and safety may give you pause, so you and your doctor could discuss COOLIEF* as an option.
Hammer strike
Your pain is getting worse. You may have tried steroid injections, but you may not be ready for another round and need lasting relief. Your doctor may have brought up surgery, but you aren’t ready yet. What else is there? Maybe discuss COOLIEF* with a licensed healthcare professional.
Relentless nail gun
You may be feeling terrible pain. After several different therapies, you still haven’t found relief that lasts. You’re not ready for surgery yet, so what are your options? Ask about minimally invasive COOLIEF*.
The selector above is based on the last 5 locations on the Pain Numeric Rating Scale (Pain Score Severity: 0=no pain, 1–3=mild pain, 4–6=moderate pain, ≥7=severe pain). It is not intended to provide medical advice. Talk to your licensed healthcare professional to determine the right treatment options for you.8
