Pete Moore from the UK and co-author Mary Wing from Australia collaborated in this edition of the Pain Toolkit Here is a welcome video from Pete & Mary Pete says...A persistent pain problem can be difficult to understand and manage on an everyday basis. Like many people I struggled to manage my pain back in the early 1990’s. I was lucky to get myself on a pain management programme, which gave me the information, but more importantly, the confidence to manage my pain, myself. Since 1997, I haven't had the need to take any pain medication, simply because I still use the information from the programme. Is it easy? Well it’s like most things, you have to work at it. I’m not an academic guy, but all I can tell you, is that if I can do it, then I know others can. The Pain Toolkit is a simple information booklet that could provide you with some handy tips and skills to support you along the way to manage your pain. It is not meant to be the last word in pain self-management but a handy guide to help you get started. All you need to be is willing to read it and take on board some of the suggestions. Good luck!

He has put these tools together with the help of friends, family and healthcare professionals. Make self-managing your pain your first choice and not your last resort. So is persistent pain and fibromyalgia a problem a problem around the world? Yes, it’s become a problem worldwide. For instance here in the UK the short answer is yes, so you are not on your own. Here are some facts from the British Medical Journal Chronic (BMJ) Pain affects between one-third and one-half of the population of the UK, corresponding to just under 28 million adults, based on data from the best available published studies. This figure is likely to increase further in line with an ageing population. People with persistent pain were more likely to be anxious or depressed - 69% with severe pain are worried about their moods. Pete says…I receive daily emails from people who are worried, anxious and even get depressed. Is Fibromyalgia common? The NHS in the UK says… Some estimates suggest nearly 1 in 20 people may be affected by fibromyalgia to some degree. One of the main reasons it's not clear how many people are affected. 12 Pain Toolkit Tools Tool 1 - Accept that you have persistent pain ... and then begin to move on Tool 2 - Get involved, building a support team Tool 3 - Pacing daily activities Tool 4 - Learn to prioritise/plan out your days Tool 5 - Setting Goals/ Action Plans Tool 6 - Being patient with yourself Tool 7 - Learn relaxation skills Tool 8 - Meaningful movement (keeping active) Tool 9 - Keep a diary and track your progress Tool 10 - Have a setback plan Tool 11 - Teamwork Tool 12 - Keeping it up and being resilient.

Book Synopsis Pain Toolkit (Neuropathic) UK & Canada August 2020 by : Author
Download or read book Pain Toolkit (Neuropathic) UK & Canada August 2020 written by Author and published by Pain Toolkit . This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Pain Toolkit ....is for people who live with Neuropathic persistent, long-term pain. Living with Neuropathic Pain by Keith Meldrum Persistent or long-term neuropathic pain presents challenges that are different from other forms of persistent pain (known as nociceptive and nociplastic pain). The most important distinction is that with neuropathic pain there is underlying damage to a person’s nervous system. Neuropathic pain is defined as “pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system”. The somatosensory nervous system is a network of neurons that help people recognize objects, discriminate textures, generate sensory-motor feedback, and exchange social cues. What this means from the perspective of day to day life is that neuropathic pain is always present. It may modulate in intensity throughout the day, but the pain remains. Neuropathic pain is often best described as burning, shooting, stabbing, tingling, numbness, pins and needles, and hot and cold. Some common effects of neuropathic pain include allodynia and/or hyperalgesia. Allodynia is pain that is evoked by a stimulus that is usually not painful, such as a feather or clothing against someone’s skin. Hyperalgesia is an increased response to pain that already exists. These feelings are constant, daily, inescapable, and underscore the reason why it is important to understand the complexity of persistent neuropathic pain and how to best consider, implement, and modify effective pain self-management techniques. The principles of self-management are important but need to be considered in the context of neuropathic pain.

Book Synopsis Pain Management and the Opioid Epidemic by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Download or read book Pain Management and the Opioid Epidemic written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.

Book Synopsis Magnesium in the Central Nervous System by : Robert Vink
Download or read book Magnesium in the Central Nervous System written by Robert Vink and published by University of Adelaide Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brain is the most complex organ in our body. Indeed, it is perhaps the most complex structure we have ever encountered in nature. Both structurally and functionally, there are many peculiarities that differentiate the brain from all other organs. The brain is our connection to the world around us and by governing nervous system and higher function, any disturbance induces severe neurological and psychiatric disorders that can have a devastating effect on quality of life. Our understanding of the physiology and biochemistry of the brain has improved dramatically in the last two decades. In particular, the critical role of cations, including magnesium, has become evident, even if incompletely understood at a mechanistic level. The exact role and regulation of magnesium, in particular, remains elusive, largely because intracellular levels are so difficult to routinely quantify. Nonetheless, the importance of magnesium to normal central nervous system activity is self-evident given the complicated homeostatic mechanisms that maintain the concentration of this cation within strict limits essential for normal physiology and metabolism. There is also considerable accumulating evidence to suggest alterations to some brain functions in both normal and pathological conditions may be linked to alterations in local magnesium concentration. This book, containing chapters written by some of the foremost experts in the field of magnesium research, brings together the latest in experimental and clinical magnesium research as it relates to the central nervous system. It offers a complete and updated view of magnesiums involvement in central nervous system function and in so doing, brings together two main pillars of contemporary neuroscience research, namely providing an explanation for the molecular mechanisms involved in brain function, and emphasizing the connections between the molecular changes and behavior. It is the untiring efforts of those magnesium researchers who have dedicated their lives to unraveling the mysteries of magnesiums role in biological systems that has inspired the collation of this volume of work.

Book Synopsis Compounded Topical Pain Creams by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Download or read book Compounded Topical Pain Creams written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pain is both a symptom and a disease. It manifests in multiple forms and its treatment is complex. Physical, social, economic, and emotional consequences of pain can impair an individual's overall health, well-being, productivity, and relationships in myriad ways. The impact of pain at a population level is vast and, while estimates differ, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that 50 million U.S. adults are living in pain. In terms of pain's global impact, estimates suggest the problem affects approximately 1 in 5 adults across the world, with nearly 1 in 10 adults newly diagnosed with chronic pain each year. In recent years, the issues surrounding the complexity of pain management have contributed to increased demand for alternative strategies for treating pain. One such strategy is to expand use of topical pain medicationsâ€"medications applied to intact skin. This nonoral route of administration for pain medication has the potential benefit, in theory, of local activity and fewer systemic side effects. Compounding is an age-old pharmaceutical practice of combining, mixing, or adjusting ingredients to create a tailored medication to meet the needs of a patient. The aim of compounding, historically, has been to provide patients with access to therapeutic alternatives that are safe and effective, especially for people with clinical needs that cannot otherwise be met by commercially available FDA-approved drugs. Compounded Topical Pain Creams explores issues regarding the safety and effectiveness of the ingredients in these pain creams. This report analyzes the available scientific data relating to the ingredients used in compounded topical pain creams and offers recommendations regarding the treatment of patients.
Download or read book Explain Pain written by David S Butler and published by Noigroup Publications. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine an orchestra in your brain. It plays all kinds of harmonious melodies, then pain comes along and the different sections of the orchestra are reduced to a few pain tunes. All pain is real. And for many people it is a debilitating part of everyday life. It is now known that understanding more about why things hurt can actually help people to overcome their pain. Recent advances in fields such as neurophysiology, brain imaging, immunology, psychology and cellular biology have provided an explanatory platform from which to explore pain. In everyday language accompanied by quirky illustrations, Explain Pain discusses how pain responses are produced by the brain: how responses to injury from the autonomic motor and immune systems in your body contribute to pain, and why pain can persist after tissues have had plenty of time to heal. Explain Pain aims to give clinicians and people in pain the power to challenge pain and to consider new models for viewing what happens during pain. Once they have learnt about the processes involved they can follow a scientific route to recovery. The Authors: Dr Lorimer Moseley is Professor of Clinical Neurosciences and the Inaugural Chair in Physiotherapy at the University of South Australia, Adelaide, where he leads research groups at Body in Mind as well as with Neuroscience Research Australia in Sydney. Dr David Butler is an international freelance educator, author and director of the Neuro Orthopaedic Institute, based in Adelaide, Australia. Both authors continue to publish and present widely.
