Most of us have experience with earaches, either in our children or sometimes through personal experience. Although the pain is severe, it does resolve in a few days.
What if the pain never went away?
Join Dr Karmy for an interview with a clinic patient who has a very unusual chronic pain condition. In this interview, we discuss how our patient found a path forward both emotionally and medically and what lessons can be learned from her experience.
One of the first resources Savitri tried to help manage her pain was an online course recommended by her physiotherapist called: The Pain Truth
The courses they provide perspectives from pain sufferers with different diagnoses. It's a resource to help move through the helpless cycle chronic pain sufferers feel and helps foster the feeling of "taking charge" of one's life while coming to terms with accepting the new reality.
