Just starting to put together some topics in relation to pain management.

First one on opioids is here

I’ve had an enquiry about glia and inflammation, and where to get more information.

The following YouTube video’s are from a lecture series that I would highly reccomend.  They are aimed at a high level so this is for anyone who really wants to understand the basic science of all of this:

Mark Hutchinson is a South Australian based basic science researcher who has done amazing things in helping us understand how pain is processed and especially in how glia modulate pain.

If you are working professionally in pain management then these are interesting talks worth your time.

If you have chronic pain as a patient, then you may find them of value although I would point out that they do cover complex material and the basic science of why many people feel chronic pain.
