Stream Thinking Pain Management

Published: Sept. 6, 2022, 6 p.m.

Pain management. What is it really? Medicine.net advices people to evaluate the pain problem with the goal being to stop the source. I am no doctor. I'm a professional though at always being in pain. I manage my way through life but not physically pain management. As a daily writer I document everything. Being aware of what invites the pain. To manage the body. As a martial artist I learned the hard way that just because something feels better I'm not healed. The injury is always waiting to be vocal. My physical therapist looked at me and gently said, "You have 60 years of bad habits. This is going to take longer than six months."
