How to work effectively with clinicians relative to persistent pain?
- Ask your clinician their knowledge of recent Pain Science insights. (This could be a shared learning experience with your clinician.)
- Be honest about the pain you are experiencing and the information you are learning about pain science.
- Ask if there are any other conditions to be ruled out as causes of your pain.
- Ask how long it usually takes for a person to recover from your surgery and/or injuries so you can be confident it’s safe to increase your activity level.
- Ask for guidance with increasing your daily activity level.
- Be honest about the pain medications you are taking and ask about side-effects with prolonged use.
