Musculoskeletal disorders, like back pain and arthritis, are recognized as occupational diseases in Western countries which have a large office workforce. The UK's Health and Safety Executive lists some of the causes of these disorders as repetitive work, particularly using the same hand or arm action, carrying out a task for a long time and working with display screen equipment. Pain or stiffness in the muscles, tendons, nerves, back, wrists or neck can appear little by little when certain office equipment is missing, or not set up correctly. Let's discuss some tips that can improve office posture. What about my office chair? Is there a right way to sit in front of your computer? What about the rest of my equipment? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions ! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: Should you really drink hot drinks when it's hot? Could insects replace meat?

“These women aren't just dealing with an injury. They're living in a low-estrogen environment that changes everything about healing.”Musculoskeletal pain in midlife is often misdiagnosed. A woman presents with widespread joint pain, poor sleep, and fatigue, and she's given a stack of prescriptions that never get to the root cause. But in perimenopause and menopause, declining estrogen and progesterone fundamentally change how muscles, tendons, and bones repair and recover, and without that context, practitioners can unintentionally overlook one of the most important drivers of their clients' pain.For us as women's health practitioners, this is a call to rethink the way we approach musculoskeletal pain in women over 40. Recognizing the hormonal-musculoskeletal connection allows us to shift from chasing symptoms to addressing root causes with confidence.In today's episode, I'm sharing a case study of a 51-year-old client navigating widespread musculoskeletal pain, poor sleep, osteopenia, and perimenopause. Using our updated MAPS framework and seven-step system from the Perimenopause and Menopause Certificate Program, I break down how to integrate hormone health, nervous system regulation, nutrition, mitochondrial support, and strength training into a comprehensive care plan.I'm sharing why estrogen and progesterone matter for joint and bone health, how to avoid the downward spiral of polypharmacy, practical strategies to help clients recover at a sustainable pace, and how to use integrative tools to help your clients thrive.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!---Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/new-approach-to-musculoskeletal-pain-in-menopause-with-dr-jessica-drummond/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).

I'm Dr. Daniel Cameron. In my practice, I often see patients with chronic pain, and I want to explore whether chronic Lyme disease could be part of the puzzle behind America's growing pain epidemic.A recent paper by Jovkovich in Pain reported that chronic pain prevalence in U.S. adults rose from 21% in 2019 to 24% in 2023—affecting 60 million people. Only about 13% of this increase was linked to long COVID. The rest remains unexplained.Overlap Between Lyme Pain and National Pain TrendsThe types of pain described—back, neck, joint, headache, abdominal, and widespread musculoskeletal pain—mirror what I see in chronic Lyme patients. Lyme pain is often multi-system, migratory, unpredictable, and can flare with fatigue and stress. It includes:Musculoskeletal pain: Joint and tendon pain, often misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia.Neurologic pain: Headaches resistant to migraine therapy, burning or electrical-shock sensations, small fiber neuropathy.Abdominal/pelvic pain: Frequently linked with autonomic dysfunction.Why Lyme Gets MissedTesting limitations: Standard CDC two-tier testing is more reliable in acute cases, leaving many chronic patients without positive results.Mislabels: Fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, or “pain of unknown origin.”COVID-era factors: More outdoor exposure, missed diagnoses due to care delays, absent rash or visible tick bite.Geography and DemographicsThe pain hotspots in the Pain study—Northeast, Upper Midwest, Pacific coast—are also Lyme-endemic regions. Affected populations included working adults, outdoor enthusiasts, rural and suburban residents, aligning closely with Lyme risk groups.Strongest Evidence: Treatment ResponsePerhaps the clearest sign is clinical: when patients with undiagnosed Lyme receive targeted antibiotic or co-infection therapy, their chronic pain often improves or resolves.Bottom line: Chronic Lyme disease may be an overlooked contributor to America's pain crisis. The symptoms overlap, the geography matches, and patients often respond to treatment. To better address the 60 million Americans in pain, we need to update diagnostic strategies, look beyond tick rash and positive tests, and include Lyme disease in the differential.

I'm Dr. Daniel Cameron, and today I'm addressing a question I often see in my practice: What are the risk factors for chronic Lyme disease?Chronic Lyme SymptomsSome patients do not fully recover from Lyme disease. They experience a broad range of symptoms, including ongoing fatigue, pain, sleep problems, neurologic changes, emotional strain, and disruption of daily life. These challenges can affect school, parenting, and work responsibilities.Common chronic Lyme manifestations include:Musculoskeletal: chronic arthritis, muscle pain, stiffness, and tendon inflammation.Neurologic and psychiatric: brain fog, memory issues, neuropathy, sensory changes, depression, irritability, mood swings, and PANS. Post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome (PTLDS) is often debated, but I view it as a potential ongoing infection rather than simply a syndrome.Cardiovascular/dysautonomia: POTS, Lyme carditis, arrhythmias, chest pain, and dizziness.Other manifestations: sensory overload (light, sound, heat, cold, or smell sensitivity), sometimes related to dysautonomic issues.Risk Factors for Chronic Lyme DiseaseWhile formal assessments are ongoing, in my practice I see several consistent contributors:Severe initial infection such as neurologic Lyme meningitis or carditis.Treatment delays, sometimes months or years.Early systemic involvement at onset—widespread fatigue, pain, neurological symptoms, or functional loss.Co-infections such as Babesia and other tick-borne pathogens.Reinfections and relapses, which can increase the likelihood of chronic complications.Key Takeaways for CliniciansScreen patients carefully for these risk factors.Monitor for co-infections, especially in high-risk or relapsing patients.Do not dismiss persistent symptoms, even if a formal diagnosis has not yet been established.Advice for PatientsSeek early treatment—timing matters.If symptoms persist, pursue a second opinion or find a physician experienced in managing chronic manifestations of Lyme disease.Watch for co-infections, especially Babesia, which may complicate recovery and even mimic other conditions (e.g., menopause).Advocate for comprehensive care for yourself and your family.Thank you for joining me.

Send us a textThis podcast originally ran on July 10, 2024In this episode Florida orthopedic sports medicine surgeon Dr Vonda Wright published a review paper Climacteric, the journal of the International Menopause Society, introducing Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause. The paper has been shared widely across social media, and this interview with Dr Wright is an edited version from last year diving into Dr Wright's efforts to create awareness of this constellation of muscle and joint problems experienced during perimenopause. This is an issue close to Dr Wright's heart: it was the first thing she went though in perimenopause. Listen in as she explains why MSM is her mission, just what happens to our bones and muscles as we get older, and delves into the need for proper diagnosis and preventive measures such as exercise and diet, and the importance of estrogen in maintaining bone health.

Scotty's symptom list is so long I'm not sure I can remember it all to include here, but let's give it a try: back, neck, foot, leg, arm, wrist pain, "tennis elbow," pelvic and groin pain, anxiety, panic, depression, dissociation, tooth sensitivity, burning mouth, and post viral infection symptoms. When you listen, you'll hear the whole thing from his mouth! It may sound unusual, but often in the rearview mirror we end up identifying a lifetime of TMS that has plagued us and led us to live in fear. As I always advise, Scotty took the medical route for each of these diagnoses, but found himself despairing with no enduring solutions. When he finally came upon the work of Dr. Sarno, the game began to change. When he found my work via a YouTube interview I gave, everything started to make sense. Join us today for a conversation with someone who REALLY talks and talk and walks the walk. Loved connecting with Scotty and dropping so many moments of truth. You're sure to be motivated to keep going. Lots of love to everyone out there. It takes willingness and intention, but this work can change your life. XOOX n.

In this episode, host Randy Goruk explores ‘workplace injury prevention' with Dr. Jeff Staheli. Having personally experienced a workplace injury, then practicing in the field of rehabilitation for several years, Dr. Staheli has transitioned to the very important side of injury prevention. Today he trains and educates companies in various industries on how to keep their employees from being hurt at work. He will interactively train you and your team to properly lift, turn, bend, sit and move in any direction. In this episode you will learn: What musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are and their impact on workplace safety. Common MSD risks in different work environments. Proper training versus passive training. The importance of shifting from a reactive to a proactive approach to injury prevention. How to create an effective MSD training program that is interactive and job specific. The role of supervisors in identifying and mitigating workplace injury risks. The significant financial costs associated with workplace injuries. Strategies for creating a safety culture that encourages reporting and prevention. The value of ergonomic equipment and proper training in reducing workplace injuries. Practical steps companies can take to start addressing MSD prevention. The potential return on investment for implementing comprehensive injury prevention programs. The bottom line is, don't let your people get hurt; provide effective relavent training, observe, and don't ignore the signs that could lead to life-long pain and suffering.

Musculoskeletal disorders are one of the most important challenges of modern medicine worldwide. They are often attributed to maladaptations of our body to our peculiar form of locomotion, upright bipedalism. This lecture will explore the evolutionary origin of major musculoskeletal disorders such as back problems and hip joint osteoarthritis. I will show that these problems represent a relatively recent phenomenon, occurring only during the last few decades, and thus are unrelated to our skeletal adaptations.

Musculoskeletal disorders are one of the most important challenges of modern medicine worldwide. They are often attributed to maladaptations of our body to our peculiar form of locomotion, upright bipedalism. This lecture will explore the evolutionary origin of major musculoskeletal disorders such as back problems and hip joint osteoarthritis. I will show that these problems represent a relatively recent phenomenon, occurring only during the last few decades, and thus are unrelated to our skeletal adaptations.

MOVE NOW to Fight Cancer Podcast / DARE TO BE VITAL BOOKFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of this Week's Podcast* Stop injecting cortisone for knee or elbow pain.A newly published MRI study of 210 patients showed that even one cortisone shot accelerated knee-osteoarthritis progression and carried risks such as bone-marrow lesions and rapid joint destruction. Dr. Mishra argues that “doing nothing” is safer than cortisone and recommends a “better biologics flywheel” of weight control, muscle building, and vitamin D optimization instead.* Whole-body vibration (WBV) is a promising muscle- and bone-builder.A meta-analysis of 21 randomized trials (~750 healthy women) found WBV platforms significantly improved lower-body strength and femoral bone density; benefits were greatest with >12 weeks of training at frequencies above 30 Hz, and in post-menopausal women.* Musculoskeletal health underpins long-term vitality.Losing mobility cascades into weight gain, cardiovascular decline, and even cognitive slowdown. Dr. Mishra positions whole-body vibration, strength training, and biologic approaches (muscle, bone, vitamin D) as an “all-in strategy” to safeguard movement capacity and overall life performance.* Interacting with dogs measurably boosts brain health and mood.An EEG study of 30 adults showed activities like playing, grooming, and walking a dog lowered stress markers and heightened relaxation, attention, and creativity, branding dogs as “verified vitality enhancers.”* Weekly action plan—do the right thing because it is right.Inspired by Kant's dictum, the episode's practical call-outs are: skip cortisone, build muscle via whole body vibration and spend time with a dog to spark calm and creativity. Implementing even one of these evidence-based steps moves you toward Dr. Mishra's goal of optimizing vitality and performance “one person at a time.” This is a public episode.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions Impact of Menstrual Cycle and Menopause on Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain and introduction to a proposed new syndrome, the Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause.This episode delves into the connection between hormones, fibromyalgia, and other chronic pain conditions like migraines and endometriosis, emphasizing the significant impact of a woman's menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and menopause on chronic pain. Various studies and polls on symptom severity during different menstrual phases and post-menopause are discussed. The crucial role of estrogen in maintaining musculoskeletal health is elaborated, along with the negative consequences of estrogen decline, such as increased inflammation, bone loss, muscle weakness, and osteoarthritis. The episode also covers the benefits and risks of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in alleviating these issues, touching on the historical trends and evolving practices in HRT usage. A comprehensive approach to managing menopause-related symptoms, including nutrition, exercise, and personalized medical advice, is encouraged. The episode concludes by highlighting upcoming discussions on studies involving hormone therapy for fibromyalgia patients.00:00 Introduction to Fibromyalgia and Hormones00:20 Impact of Menstrual Cycle on Chronic Pain01:16 Fibromyalgia and Menopause01:27 Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause02:36 Estrogen's Role in Musculoskeletal Health06:39 Managing Sarcopenia and Muscle Loss08:41 Osteoporosis and Bone Health13:58 Hormone Replacement Therapy Trends17:15 Hormone Therapy Risks and Benefits26:06 Hormone Therapy and Mental Health28:32 Conclusion and Upcoming Topics Click here for the Fibromyalgia 101 link.Click here to connect with Joy Lenz. Support the showWhen I started this podcast—and the book that came before it—I had my patients in mind. Office visits are short, but understanding complex, often misunderstood conditions like fibromyalgia takes time. That's why I created this space: to offer education, validation, and hope. If you've been told fibromyalgia “isn't real” or that it's “all in your head,” know this—I see you. I believe you. You're not alone. This podcast aims to affirm your experience and explain the science behind it. Whether you live with fibromyalgia, care for someone who does, or are a healthcare professional looking to better support patients, you'll find trusted, evidence-based insights here, drawn from my 28+ years as an MD. Please remember to talk with your doctor about your symptoms and care. This content doesn't replace personal medical advice.* ...
Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine. She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause. Why is it that we so often find ourselves achey, sore, stiff all of the sudden in our forties? This seems to get worse as we move through menopause - we lose muscle, bone density and flexibility. It makes us think of our loved ones - the elder females who might have broken a hip, lack strength and thus, their independance. Not on my watch, I say! Listen in as I explain the Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause (the MSM). The MSM looks like this:

Non-orthopedic causes of pain can present in an orthopedic urgent care or clinic setting and it's important to recognize when a patient needs to be referred to another provider. When it comes to the pelvis and the hip joint, what other things might present as musculoskeletal pain? Sam and Chuck discuss some experiences.
Glucose is the main source of energy for all forms of life, but it isn't usually stored as individual C6H12O6 molecules. Animals use glycogen to do that job. Glycogen is a large branched polymer of glucose molecules, linked together by α-1,4 and α-1,6 glycosidic bonds. The liver and muscles break down the stored glycogen whenever the body needs an extra boost of glucose. Glycogen storage diseases are genetic defects in glycogen metabolism resulting in accumulation of glycogen. What happens when macromolecules accumulate in cells? Cell damage and dysfunction. Because the liver and muscles are the two main organs that use glycogen, they are also the two most affected by glycogen storage diseases. In the liver, glycogen accumulation leads to hypoglycemia since the glycogen can't be broken down to glucose. Damage to the liver from extra glycogen can also lead to liver failure or even liver cancers. In the muscles, glycogen accumulation causes weakness, exercise intolerance, and potentially heart failure. There are at least 12 distinct glycogen storage diseases, but we'll cover only the 4 most common ones. After listening to this Audio Brick, you should be able to: Identify the most common glycogen storage diseases: von Gierke disease (type 1), Pompe disease (type 2), Cori disease (type 3), and McArdle disease (type 5). Identify the enzymes deficient in each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. Describe the clinical manifestations of each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. Describe management for each of the most common glycogen storage diseases. You can also check out the original brick from our Cellular and Molecular Biology collection, which is available for free.

We discuss the evaluation of and treatment options for acute back pain. Hosts: Benjamin Friedman, MD Brian Gilberti, MD https://media.blubrry.com/coreem/content.blubrry.com/coreem/Acute_Back_Pain.mp3 Download Leave a Comment Tags: Musculoskeletal, Orthopaedics Show Notes **Please fill out this quick survey to help us develop additional resources for our listeners: Core EM Survey** Clinical Evaluation: Primary Goal: Distinguish benign musculoskeletal pain from serious pathology. Red Flags: Look for indicators of spinal infection, spinal bleed, or space-occupying lesions (e.g., tumors, large herniated discs). Assessment: A thorough history and neurological exam (strength testing, gait) is essential. Additional Tools: Use bedside ultrasound for post-void residual assessment in suspected cauda equina syndrome Imaging Guidelines: Routine Imaging: Generally not indicated for young, healthy patients without red flags. ACEP Recommendations: Avoid lumbar X-rays in patients under 50 without risk factors, as they do not change management and may increase costs and ED time. Advanced Imaging: Reserve MRI for patients with red flags, neurological deficits, or suspected cauda equina syndrome; CRP may be a part of your calculus when evaluating for infectious causes of back pain Treatment Options: Evidence-Based First-Line: NSAIDs offer modest benefit.
Non-orthopedic causes of pain can present in an orthopedic urgent care or clinic setting and it's important to know what to include in your differential. When do you refer out or send to the Emergency Department? In Part 2, Sam and Chuck discuss pain symptoms from the low back to cervical spine.
Musculoskeletal embolization is generating significant excitement in the field of chronic pain management. In this episode, Dr. Jacob Fleming hosts a discussion with Dr. Yuji Okuno from Japan, a pioneer in both basic science and clinical practice within the field of musculoskeletal embolization. --- This podcast is supported by: Medtronic MVP https://www.medtronic.com/mvp --- SYNPOSIS The conversation delves into Dr. Okuno's groundbreaking work using embolization to treat chronic pain from conditions such as frozen shoulder, knee osteoarthritis, plantar fasciitis, and various sports injuries. Dr. Okuno discusses the development of new temporary embolic agents and compares different approaches to embolization treatments, including the innovative use of antibiotics as embolic material. The doctors also cover the intriguing concept of differential recanalization, where abnormal inflammatory vessels are less likely to recanalize than normal vessels after embolic treatment. Identifying hypervascularity through MRI, ultrasound, or angiogram is a crucial step before attempting embolization. Overall, Dr. Okuno offers valuable insights into his clinical practice and the potential for groundbreaking advancements in musculoskeletal care worldwide. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 01:54 - Origins of Embolization for Pain 04:15 - Basic Science Research Discoveries and Clinical Trials 09:02 - Temporary Embolic Materials 15:28 - Techniques for Embolization 17:33 - Plantar Fasciitis Treatment 24:04 - Future of Embolization in Sports Injuries 28:11 - Diagnostic Imaging in Embolization 36:10 - Global Expansion and Collaborations
