The history of researching why we feel pain dates back to the mid-20th century. Since then, the field of medicine has begun to better understand why we feel pain, but we’re still learning about how to manage long-term, chronic pain. Dr. Jane Ballantyne joins us today to share the history of pain management and the ways that we can seek treatment for chronic pain safely and responsibly. Additionally, we’ll hear a moving story from Cassie, a patient in treatment for Opioid Use Disorder.
