In this week's episode of the Spine & Nerve podcast, Dr. Karvelas and Dr. Joves discuss the behavioral health aspects of chronic pain.

It is very well documented that chronic pain has very significant psychologic connections. The International Association for the Study of Pain define pain as "an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage"; which is derived from a 1964 definition and was first published in 1979.

Listen as the doctors dive deeper into this topic and give some practical tips for people living with or treating chronic pain.
