Pain Management |
Pain cycle02/11/2009 |
I keep on hearing about the pain cycle and that I need to break the cycle. I live in severe cronic pain. Can you tell me what the pain cycle is?
This is a very broad question. Breaking the pain cycle encompasses a multidisciplinary approach including a pain psychologist, pharmacotherapy, physical therapy, and interventional pain management. All work together to break the pain cycle.
