Manage episode 424651993 series 3573697
In this episode of "It's Not In Your Head," Dan and Justine dive into the nuanced aspects of how to more effectively communicate about pain with patients, focusing on the significance of specific language and its impact on patient outcomes. They caution against phrases that suggest pain is purely psychological and inadvertently blame and shame the patient, emphasizing pain is a complex interplay of physiological and psychological factors. They stress the importance of clinicians avoiding language that can be perceived as dismissive or condescending, instead advocating for a collaborative, empathetic approach.
The episode highlights the need for patients and clinicians to work together in identifying and addressing the various drivers and amplifiers of pain, including physical injuries, sensitization, and mood disorders. Importantly, they provide crisis resources for those experiencing mental health challenges associated with chronic pain, encouraging listeners to seek help when needed. Through their discussion, Dan and Justine underscore the necessity of understanding and treating chronic pain with empathy, compassion, and a focus on empowering patients in their pain management journey.
