Anyone that suffers with a
chronic pain condition knows that it not only affects the
body, but also the mind. Its effect on a sufferers mind
can almost be worse than the pain itself. Chronic pain
becomes chronic when pain does not go away after the
normal healing time allowed. This usually is around 6
months. Acute pain is the direct result of an injury or
disease. Acute pain heals, chronic pain stays.
It is estimated that nearly
30% of the population suffers with chronic pain. The pain
can cause depression and anxiety in most patients. This is
only natural. When the body is fighting pain all the time,
the body becomes tense and can react in the classic,
“Fight or Flight Response”. This natural state of mind
and body is a reaction that is embedded in all humans and
animals. When the body is under stress, we react by either
“taking flight” or running, or “fighting”.
Getting stuck in this
pattern can add to the pain and suffering. How? If your
body is tense and anxiety ridden on a constant basis,
usually other problems will occur such as irritable bowel
syndrome, pelvic muscle pain, migraine headaches, ulcers,
and the list goes on and on.
Learning to deal with
chronic pain conditions AND the repercussions of it is
key.
In order to get pain under
control, there are many options for people to choose from.
Of course, the more natural, drug-free methods are
recommended. But in most cases, drugs such as Oxycodone
may be recommended. (See http://www.oxycodon-on-line.redmaven.com)
1. Exercise
One of the best methods for
breaking pain levels and calming down the “Fight or
Flight Response” is EXERCISE. Yes, it is simple. But it
creates a greater chemical pain reduction in the human
body than most strong pain medications...even Morphine !
Exercise, even if just a gradual walk, can make a huge
impact on chronic pain.
2. Medications
Medications can help reduce
a persons pain level dramatically and can help that person
live a more normal life. The strength and type of
medication should be determined by an expert in chronic
pain. The right medication can make all the difference in
the world. One drawback of medication is the possibility
of addiction.
3. Meditation
Learning meditation can
greatly reduce stress and pain. This can be in the form of
yoga or just sitting quiet everyday for 20 minutes.
Meditation can be easily learned by anyone. One of the
most common methods of meditating is sitting in a quiet
place, and only focusing on the breath. When other
thoughts occur, it is important to just let them go and
focus back on the breath. Meditation and yoga are becoming
more popular for all sorts of ailments ranging from high
blood pressure to panic attacks.
Want to really give chronic
pain a knock out punch?
Do all three in
combination...Exercise, Medication, and Meditation.
Stick with all three and
you will almost be certain that your pain levels will
decrease. No one should have to suffer from chronic pain.
But if you do, it CAN be managed!
