Exploring Chronic Pain
An estimated 100 million Americans live with some form of chronic pain. In contrast to acute pain, chronic pain conditions are long-lasting and require ongoing medical attention. While chronic pain can sometimes remain dormant for prolonged periods, flare-ups can be debilitating, detracting from a patient’s quality of life. To mitigate persistent discomfort, look to Village Emergency Centers.
What Is Classified as Chronic Pain?
Generally, any pain that persists longer than six months can be classified as chronic pain. However, the timeline to define chronic pain may differ from doctor to doctor. In any case, all medical professionals agree that chronic pain requires consistent and comprehensive pain management treatment.

What Our Patients are Saying About Our Emergency Care Services
Amy Trim
League City
“This emergency room is absolute AMAZING. Both my husband & I have been treated here & have had phenomenal experiences. They always treat you with love & respect. They run all of the tests that are needed, but they don’t add a bunch of unnecessary test. We all know that doctors are human, but sometimes I think some doctors forget that but not at Clear Creek Emergency Room. Dr. Luna, Dr. Cruz, and Rommel, RN are amazing!”

“I was pleased to know there’s a place to get urgent care when needed. I was taken care off promptly and efficiently. Dr. Luna treated me with respect and was very informative about my health condition. I actually was in and out of there in 3 hours. Everything was explained to me and I am happy to know there’s a place like this Jersey Village ER. Hopefully, I will not need to return but if I need to I know I will get great care. Thank you Dr Luna and staff.”
