Pain Matters | 59
We get an expert’s view on the benefits and risks of one of the most basic and widely-used painkillers, paracetamol.
How does the way we feel about a treatment affect its success and can we harness the controversial placebo effect for the patient’s benefit?
We also look at the positive and destructive ways in which our relationships can interact with chronic pain. A young carer writes tenderly of helping her mother cope with pain and the close bond formed between them, while we also investigate the often overlooked connection between domestic violence and chronic pain.
Plus: A physiotherapist’s tips on setting your baseline and getting active, Vidyamala Burch’s column on mindfulness, Pete Moore answers your self-management questions, and, as always, the latest pain news, reviews and your messages.
