Understanding Pain through Political Lenses: Left, Right, and Center Approaches

In this insightful episode of 'It's Not In Your Head' podcast, Dan and Justine discuss the concept of managing chronic pain through political analogies—left wing, right wing, and centrist approaches. They delve into their experiences and observations, identifying different pain patterns and the treatment methodologies that work best for them. The conversation touches on the influence of media on public perception of pain treatments, specifically spinal cord stimulation, and the challenges of conveying accurate medical information in the modern day environment of misinformation we all live in. They provide a comprehensive breakdown of how each 'political orientation' correlates with pain treatment philosophies, helping both patients and providers better match the best approaches for various pain presentations.
