You do not have to live with pain anymore! Does chronic pain limit your movements? Do you feel disconcerted, exhausted, and pessimistic about the future? Does your pain forbid you from aiming higher in life? Pain is a pervasive condition affecting one in every five people in India. It encompasses a wide spectrum of disorders and includes acute, chronic and cancer pain, and sometimes a combination of these. Acute pain occurs most commonly after an injury or surgery and usually resolves within three to six months. Chronic pain, however, persists for longer. It is a disease affecting a person both physically and mentally. Fortunately, this book, written by two highly qualified and experienced health experts, suggests remedies such as: Understanding the emotional factors behind physical pain. Pain is a 'bio psycho social' phenomena and we cannot separate the mental and social processes from the physical. Offering case studies of real patients to show their journey to living a pain-free life. Busting common myths and misinformation related to pain management. Providing a list of drugs and analysing their potential. Despite the enormity of the problem, the public at large is not fully aware of how to go about addressing it. Conquering Pain: Prevent It, Treat It and Lead a Better Life addresses these and many more pertinent questions so that the patients can lead a better, pain-free life.
