In this podcast, Chris reflects on his first workshop on elbow pain, sharing insights on educating participants about basic orthopedic knowledge and treatment options. He discusses the importance of understanding pain through various assessments and simplifying complex healthcare concepts for better patient understanding. The episode also explores the challenges individuals face in managing chronic pain, using the analogy of mountain climbing to illustrate the support needed along the way. Theoretically, climbing Mount Everest is simple. You can find all the info you need with an internet search; however, practically applying that info to summit Mount Everest is incredibly difficult. Something can be simple and difficult simultaneously. Chronic pain resolution is conceptually simple but seemingly impossible for many people without a guide. Some people need a “Pain Sherpa.”
