Pain and Pain Medicines

from Return to Healing: Common Sense Health Care · host Andy and Alan

With the opioid crisis looming on the horizon always, the question comes as to how to treat pain.  So many medicines have side effects an are overall dangerous.  Some work about as much as placebo.  We'll talk about medicines, but then discuss better ways to deal with pain, from mindfulness to exercises to other non-medical modalities.  Pain is real, but pain should not be an invitation to be smothers by medicines and the medical system.  We will help you through this!"The greater the ignorance, the greater the dogmatism."  -William Osler, MDwww.returntohealing.com
