Synopsis

With increasing abuse of prescription drugs affecting every facet of society, this book tackles treating chronic pain without the use of opiates and/or other prescription pain killers. Focus is on a holistic approach to living with chronic pain. Written in an easy-to-read/user friendly format with accompanying glossary of medical terms. This book is about pain. It is a book for anyone who is in pain or who has ever felt pain. It is a book for professionals who treat pain and for anyone who wants to know more about pain. In other words, it is a book for everyone. Pain is one of the most important and urgent issues facing the world today. Millions and millions are afflicted with pain and it is the most frequent reason Americans seek medical attention annually. More than 50 million people in the US suffer from long-lasting pain that persists for months or years. Government agencies report 22 percent of primary care patients report being in pain; 83 million adults reveal pain affects their participation in an activity; 4.5 million patients die in pain each year; and 26 percent of nursing home residents experience daily pain. Pain is a worldwide pandemic with no end in sight. The book will review some of the physical and psychological problems associated with pain, as well as ways to assess pain. It will examine methods, without the use of narcotic/opiate/pain killers, used to treat pain in a comprehensive holistic manner so that health and function can be restored.
