Pain Management Fact VS Fiction

Fact VS Fiction

Myth: Hurt always means harm.
We all have a “pain alarm” that is set to protect us from danger.
Fact: Pain is a real sensation. It is never “in your head,” but it is always “in your brain.”
Pain can occur even when all medical tests are normal (think headache, back ache, and stomachache). This is why most surgeries for chronic pain do not work.
Fact: Exercise can help.
In the acute pain phase, particularly in the case of an injury, the pain alarm is right in telling us to stop and rest. However, in chronic pain, stopping any time you feel pain can lead to loss of muscle mass, isolation, depression, and poor quality of life. We call this “the disability spiral”.
Myth: When medical tests are clear and no biological damage exists, pain must be imaginary or “in your head.”
In chronic pain focusing on the sources of pain (e.g., back, leg) is most often not helpful. However, because pain sensations are processed in our brains, strategies that teach us how to think differently about pain and how to turn down the pain alarm can have an enormous positive impact on both the level of pain and how much pain impacts our functioning and quality of life.

Some Common Sources Of Chronic Pain:

  • Cancer
  • Fibromyalgia, Multiple Sclerosis and other diagnosed conditions (Chronic Non-Malignant Pain)
  • Post surgery complications
  • Spinal stenosis
  • Complex Regional Pain Symptoms
  • Injuries sustained in motor vehicle vehicle accidents, athletic competition, and other daily physical labor.
