Managing chronic pain without drugs

back and hip No Comments »

An estimated 2 million Americans are hooked on prescription painkillers, along with another 600,000 hooked on heroin. As the damage of opioids becomes clear, doctors are increasingly looking for alternatives for managing pain. Biofeedback can reduce chronic pain, so can mindfulness training and yoga, Miles O’Brien reports.

Chronic pain can be debilitating, but there are ways to help your mind and body manage pain. Matthew Schumann, licensed psychologist with Mayo Clinic, discusses factors that impact pain, and reviews evidence-based self-management strategies to reduce pain.

Fourteen years of pain and failed ankle surgeries brought me to 2018, when I made the difficult decision to become a twenty-seven-year-old below-the-knee elective amputee. This channel is to document my journey of amputation surgery, recovery, and reclaiming my life.

I’ve done plenty of vlogs and “day in the life” videos, but this time I wanted to give you a look into what life is really like for those of us who have chronic illnesses and disabilities. I’ve been told countless times that it “must be nice” to stay at home, but this is what it looks like very often.

#068 DESENSITIZE the brain to eliminate CHRONIC PAIN

back and hip No Comments »

00:00 Introduction
01:01 What are the symptoms of central sensitization?
04:27 How does a person develop central sensitization?
13:14 Is there any test that can be ordered to confirm the diagnosis?
14:46 how to get rid of central sensitization.

Central sensitization is a condition that affects many people with chronic pain. The person feels like brain fog, difficulty to concentrate, poor memory, low mood, low energy, fatigue and has pain in many parts of their body. This is common in people with fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome. Central sensitization is also present in people who have opioid-induced hyperalgesia.
The treatments involve mind-body therapies and movement (exercises).

WHAT’S EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROME?
The Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes are a group of more than 13 genetic connective tissue disorders that make connective tissue abnormally weak, fragile, and stretchy. Connective tissue is found in all parts of the body, including your organs, ligaments, and joints. As a result, people with EDS can be affected in all of these areas, as well as others. The most common symptoms and co-morbidities include chronic joint pain, dysautonomia, dislocations, GI tract dysmotility, and severe joint instability, among many others. The most common type (and the type that I have) is hypermobile EDS (formerly known as Type III), which is estimated to affect around 1 in every 5,000 people. However, it’s speculated by many to not be as rare as we once believed.

Opioids are still needed for many chronic pain patients | USA TODAY

back and hip No Comments »

Garrett Greene takes opioid medication for pain management and has struggled to find effective treatment.

Drug-related deaths among people 18 to 34 soared 108% between 2007 and 2017, while alcohol deaths were up 69% and suicides increased 35%, according to an analysis of the latest federal data by the non-profit Trust for America’s Health and Well Being Trust.

Maine has one of the highest overdose rates in the country, with a record 378 deaths in 2016. And the state has responded aggressively, by passing one of the nation’s strictest laws on prescribing opioids. It caps most patients at 100 milligrams of morphine, or its equivalent, per day.

But the law has had unintended consequences. Hundreds of chronic pain sufferers are now finding it impossible to access their typical dosage. After some Mainers pushed back on these restrictions, lawmakers said they could qualify for higher doses under the law’s palliative care exemption. Despite these assurances though, many doctors have their own interpretation of palliative care, considering it reserved for symptomatic relief at end of life. And with the medical community often blamed for causing the opioid crisis, patients are struggling to find doctors to give them the medicine they need. VICE News visits chronic pain sufferers in Midcoast Maine and one of the only physicians willing to exempt them from the new law.

This is the second installment for our series “World of Hurt,” which examines the ways different regions are impacted by the opioid crisis. If you or anyone you know would like to share their story as part of our ongoing coverage, please email Seth Dalton and Cassandra Giraldo at seth.dalton@vice.com and cassandra.giraldo@vice.com.
