Quick start series:
Make Sense of Your Joint Pain
In this episode, we dive into the complexities of joint pain. We’ll break down the differences between acute and chronic pain, debunk common myths surrounding chronic pain, and share actionable strategies to help you find relief.
Pain is the Fire Alarm, Not the Fire
Imagine this with me. You are sitting in your living room, and to your left a fire starts raging up the curtains. It’s no more than 10 feet from you, and you can feel the heat on your face.
Joint Pain Is A Complex, Worsening Problem
The illusion of muscle and joint pain is that it is coming from one source. Even the words we use to describe our pain reinforce this misunderstanding, e.g., “I have a back problem.”
Understanding Acute vs Chronic Pain
The key challenge when you have joint pain is navigation. Conflicting opinions and symptom chasing treatments leave people wandering in pain for years, never getting to the root cause of their pain problem.
