This week on Brainwaves, the team talked to Dr Malcolm Hogg, pain medicine specialist and board member of Pain Australia. We talked about what acute and chronic pain is, the impact it has on the physical and mental wellbeing of individuals and their families, and the various ways to treat and manage pain. National Pain Week runs from 23rd - 29th July 2018. To find out more about the week head to nationalpainweek.org.au. More resources can be found on the Pain Australia website here or on the Australian Pain Society directory here.
