616: Rethinking Pain with Dr. Amy Baxter
Manage episode 412982548 series 78091
If you’re struggling with chronic pain and trying to find help, you’ve probably noticed that the pain management industry is a big minefield with hardcore drugs on one end of the spectrum and questionable potions and placebos on the other. In an ideal world, pain is adaptive and part of our body’s defense mechanisms, but all too often it can become untethered to the original insult and begin to attack your quality of life.
Listen and learn:
- The purpose of pain in our bodies
- When to medicate and when to ignore
- The confusing connection between pain and healing
- Why some people are prone to opioid abuse more than others
