124. Addressing Persistent Pain Post-Excision with Dr. Isabel Green
Amy speaks to Dr. Isabel Green about:
—common reasons why a patient may have persistent pain post surgery, from an incomplete excision to co-conditions.
—the importance of working with our doctor to set patient-centered goals in our treatment.
—how for *some* people addressing central sensitization, especially post excision, can be a key to getting out of continued pain; but at the same time, it’s important not to blame all pain on central sensitization and to explore other possible reasons for persistent pain as well.
