What happens when you're already drowning in chronic pain—and then life throws drywall, sawdust, and emotional chaos on top of it? In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano gets real about the mess behind the scenes: home renovation hell, relentless exhaustion, and the kind of stress that clings to your skin.This isn't a glamorized version of pushing through. It's about those moments when everything feels too loud, too heavy, too much. Lyndsay opens up about the toll that physical pain takes when you're not numbing it, and how hard it can be to walk away from things—even when they're clearly not serving you. She shares what it's like to live in a body that feels like a battleground, and how something as simple as a swim can feel like coming home.More than anything, she talks about finding purpose inside the pain. The power of community. The reminder that you are not your diagnosis. And the importance of setting boundaries that protect your peace—especially when life feels like a construction zone.This one's for anyone who feels like their body is breaking and their life is a little too chaotic to keep pretending everything's fine.Tune in if you're craving honesty, connection, and a little more room to breathe.Find The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastLinkedIn: Lyndsay SopranoYouTube: The Pain Game PodcastEpisode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to Chronic Pain and Trauma(02:38) Living with Chronic Pain: Personal Struggles(10:54) Coping Mechanisms and Strategies(16:57) Conclusion and Community Engagement

  Summary In this Pain Exam Podcast episode, Dr. David Rosenblum discusses a journal club article on low volume neurolytic retrocrural celiac plexus blocks for visceral cancer pain. The study reviewed 507 patients with severe malignancy-related abdominal pain, with data retained for 455 patients at the 5-month mark. Dr. Rosenblum explains that the procedure involves injecting 3-5ml of 6% aqueous phenol at the T12-L1 level under fluoroscopic guidance, with an average procedure time of 16.3 minutes. The study found significant pain relief lasting up to six months, reduced opioid consumption, and improved quality of life for patients with primary abdominal cancer or metastatic disease. Dr. Rosenblum shares his personal experience with celiac plexus blocks, including the trans-aortic approach he trained on, and mentions his interest in ultrasound-guided approaches. He also announces upcoming teaching engagements at ASPN, Pain Week, and other conferences, as well as CME ultrasound courses available through nrappain.org. Additionally, he mentions a new community page on the website where users can share board preparation information, though he emphasizes that remembered board questions should not be posted as he is a board question writer himself.

He mentions teaching ultrasound at ASPN in July, attending Pain Week in September, and participating in the Latin American Pain Society conference. Dr. Rosenblum also promotes his CME ultrasound courses available at nrappain.org and mentions he's considering organizing another regenerative medicine course in fall or winter. He offers private training for those wanting more intensive ultrasound instruction. Board Prep Community Announcement Dr. Rosenblum announces a new community page on the nrappain.org website for board preparation. He explains that registered users can access free information and keywords relevant to board exams. He emphasizes that users should not post remembered questions as this would be inappropriate, noting that he himself is a board question writer for various pain boards. Dr. Rosenblum mentions that a post about phenol in this community inspired today's podcast topic. Journal Article Overview on Celiac Plexus Block Dr. Rosenblum introduces a journal article on low volume neurolytic retrocrural celiac plexus block for visceral cancer pain, a retrospective review of 507 patients with severe malignancy-related abdominal pain. He explains that the study assessed pain relief provided by this procedure, its duration, reduction in daily opioid consumption, and quality of life improvements. The patients received neurolytic blocks without previous diagnostic blocks due to multiple comorbidities, which Dr. Rosenblum acknowledges is sometimes necessary with very sick patients despite the typical preference for diagnostic blocks before neurolysis. Dr. Rosenblum's Personal Experience with Celiac Plexus Blocks Dr. Rosenblum shares his personal training experience with trans-aortic celiac plexus blocks, where a needle is inserted through the aorta after confirming no plaques or aneurysms are present. He describes it as a safe and effective procedure despite sounding intimidating. He mentions he's only performed a handful of these procedures and doesn't do many now as an outpatient pain doctor. Study Methods and Results Dr. Rosenblum details the study methods, noting that of 507 patients studied, data for 455 was retained at the end of the review. Patients were evaluated before and after the neurolytic retrocrural celiac plexus block under fluoroscopic guidance. Assessment included procedure duration, pain scores (0-10 scale), daily opioid consumption, and quality of life improvement. Follow-up was completed six months after the procedure, showing improved pain scores, reduced opioid consumption, and better quality of life throughout the study period. Some pain returned during months 4-6 due to disease progression and the anticipated duration of the neurolytic agent. The study noted a 6.7% initial vascular contrast uptake during the procedure while using digital subtraction angiography with fluoroscopy. Study Limitations and Conclusions Dr. Rosenblum discusses the study's limitations, including the need for a larger sample size and a prospective trial with a control group, though he acknowledges this is unrealistic given the patient population. He mentions that a proven quality of life questionnaire would be beneficial, and that comparing alcohol, phenol, and RF thermocoagulation would be interesting to evaluate duration effects and side effects. The study concluded that low volume neurolytic retrocrural celiac plexus block with phenol is safe, providing up to six months of pain relief for abdominal pain due to primary malignancy or metastatic spread. Detailed Procedure Technique Dr. Rosenblum explains the detailed procedure technique used in the study. The retrocrural celiac plexus was targeted at L1 level with aim towards T12. Anterior and posterior radiographic imaging aligning the spinous process of T12-L1 junction was used with 15-20 degree oblique rotation. Local anesthetic (1% lidocaine with sodium bicarbonate) was infiltrated along the injection path. A 22 or 25 gauge 3.5-7 inch curved spinal needle was used depending on patient body habitus. Dr. Rosenblum notes he typically uses a 6-inch Chiba needle or 25 gauge spinal needle for such procedures. Procedure Execution and Monitoring Dr. Rosenblum continues describing the procedure, noting that the needle was advanced to the anterior border of T12-L1 under multiple imaging views. Contrast dye studies verified spread and location, with digital subtraction angiography used to check for intravascular uptake. A test dose of 1ml of 0.5% bupivacaine with epinephrine per site was administered, which Dr. Rosenblum finds interesting as he typically doesn't mix bupivacaine with epinephrine. After confirming no vascular uptake, 3-5ml of 6% aqueous phenol was injected in 1ml aliquots while communicating with the patient. The average procedure time was 16.3 minutes with minimal or no sedation. Patients remained prone for 30 minutes afterward to avoid neuroforaminal spread, as phenol is heavier and more viscous than alcohol. Post-Procedure Care and Study Evaluation Dr. Rosenblum explains that patients were monitored in recovery for one hour for adverse events and their ability to eat and void easily. They were discharged once hospital post-anesthetic criteria were met and received a follow-up call 24 hours later. Dr. Rosenblum praises the study and notes that the procedure looks similar to a lumbar sympathetic plexus block, which is also a sympathetic block. Ultrasound Considerations and Alternative Approaches Dr. Rosenblum shares his interest in ultrasound-guided celiac plexus blocks but acknowledges concerns about bowel perforation. He mentions a conversation with an interventional radiology colleague who suggested a transhepatic approach. Dr. Rosenblum recalls scanning a very thin patient where the aorta was easily visible and close to the anterior abdominal wall, making the celiac plexus potentially accessible if bowel perforation, liver bleeding, or gallbladder perforation could be avoided. He shares an experience with a patient suffering from severe pancreatitis pain who received temporary relief from a paravertebral thoracic nerve block at T8-T10, noting that paravertebral blocks provide some sympathetic spread. Conclusion and Community Resource Reminder Dr. Rosenblum concludes by recommending the article, noting its well-written analysis and graphs showing morphine consumption dropping over months following the procedure. He suggests neurolytic procedures are underutilized because they sound intimidating. He again encourages listeners to check out the community he created with separate chat rooms for regenerative medicine, regional anesthesia, and pain boards, where users can share keywords but not specific board questions. Dr. Rosenblum reminds listeners about upcoming courses and his website resources, mentions an upcoming PRP lecture, and asks for five-star reviews if listeners enjoy the podcast. The episode ends with a standard medical disclaimer. Reference https://www.painphysicianjournal.com/current/pdf?article=NTQwOA%3D%3D&journal=113

Managing pain in pediatric patients is a critical aspect of prehospital care. Yet, this remains a challenging area for many EMS providers.   A new study out called “Barriers and Enablers in Prehospital Pediatric Analgesia” sheds light on the complexities of assessing and treating pain in children during ambulance rides. Led by Dr. Hoi See Tsao, Assistant Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at UT Southwestern Medical Center, the research identifies key hurdles EMS workers face and suggests actionable solutions to improve care.   Dr. Tsao, a specialist in pediatric emergency medicine with a passion for prehospital care, shared her insights and findings during a recent interview. “When pain in kids is not treated, it can lead to adverse effects such as increased anxiety, decreased pain tolerance, and fear of future healthcare encounters,” she pointed out. The stakes are high, and the study highlights both challenges and opportunities for EMS professionals.

Summary Dr. David Rosenblum delivered a comprehensive lecture on gender differences in opiate effects and prescribing practices. He discussed several key studies examining how opiates affect males and females differently, both in animal models and humans. Dr. Rosenblum shared findings showing that morphine has stronger analgesic effects in males, while females experience longer-lasting effects. He also addressed racial disparities in opiate prescribing, noting that white patients are more likely to receive opiates. From his personal clinical experience in Brooklyn, Dr. Rosenblum observed that certain populations tend to be at higher risk for opiate abuse. The lecture covered gender-specific risk factors for opiate misuse, with women tending toward emotional/psychological factors and men showing more behavioral issues.

Gender Differences in Opiate Effects - Animal Studies Dr. Rosenblum presented research showing that in animal studies, morphine exhibited stronger analgesic effects in males, while females showed longer-lasting effects and could tolerate higher doses. He noted that physical dependence was more severe in male rats during spontaneous withdrawal. Racial and Gender Disparities in Opiate Prescribing Dr. Rosenblum discussed a 2025 study revealing racial disparities in opiate prescribing, with white patients more likely to receive opiates. He shared his personal clinical experience in Brooklyn, noting that young white males were often higher-risk for abuse. Gender-Specific Risk Factors for Opiate Misuse Dr. Rosenblum detailed how women tend to show emotional and psychological risk factors for opiate misuse, while men demonstrate more behavioral risk factors.

Coming up in July 2025, the ACOG will officially release a new clinical consensus on “Pain Management for In-Office Uterine and Cervical Procedures”. Are these recommendations similar to the CDC's?

REBT for Pain Management and Exercise - Counselling Skills Feedback In Episode 338 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we explore the essential and sensitive topic of supporting suicidal clients – discussing how therapists can respond ethically and effectively, including risk assessment and safety planning. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ruth Hill about her lecture on REBT for pain management and exercise – blending cognitive therapy with physical wellbeing to support client recovery. And lastly, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss the importance of receiving and using counselling skills feedback – helping you get the most from peer observations and strengthen your skills in training. Supporting Suicidal Clients [starts at 03:29 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss the sensitive but important issue of supporting suicidal clients, and how to respond appropriately in therapy. Key points discussed include: Suicidal ideation can range from passing thoughts to detailed planning. All expressions should be taken seriously. Risk factors include mental health diagnoses (e.g. depression, bipolar disorder), substance abuse, previous attempts, bereavement, and neurodivergence (particularly autism). Warning signs may present as hopelessness, withdrawal, giving away possessions, or even sudden mood improvements. Therapists should feel confident in: Asking direct, nonjudgmental questions Assessing risk through clarity on plans and means Creating collaborative safety plans with clients Intervention may include providing helpline details, referring to a GP, or involving other services – guided by your therapeutic contract. Documentation, supervision, and appropriate CPD are all essential to ensure ethical and competent practice. REBT for Pain Management and Exercise [starts at 42:15 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ruth Hill about her lecture on REBT (Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy), and how it can be used to support pain management and exercise. The key points of this conversation include: REBT explores irrational beliefs and helps clients reframe unhelpful thoughts (e.g. “I can't cope with this pain” becomes “I don't want this pain, but I can cope with it”). Beliefs around pain often increase suffering and decrease motivation. Therapists can help clients notice and challenge cognitive distortions like catastrophising, black-and-white thinking, and mind-reading. Avoidance and guarding behaviour can worsen pain and increase deconditioning. Exercise can be reintroduced gently and collaboratively. Therapists should explore client history around movement – school PE experiences, family values, or previous injuries can shape limiting beliefs. Exercise doesn't have to mean running a marathon – it could mean stretching, walking, or visualising movement to reconnect mind and body. Counselling Skills Feedback [starts at 01:05:57 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore how to receive and use feedback on counselling skills, a vital part of developing as a student practitioner. Key points include: In triad skills sessions, the “client” should give feedback first, followed by the observer. Keep feedback constructive – use statements like “I wonder what might have happened if…” instead of criticism. Use observation forms to stay focused – reflect on specific skills such as silence, open questions, or paraphrasing. Sandwich suggestions between two pieces of positive feedback. Not all feedback is right – look for consistent patterns before making major changes. Recording practice sessions can help spot what worked well and what could be improved. Feedback isn't just about ticking boxes – it's about deepening empathy, timing,

Knee pain can be managed with proper training and techniques. Isometric exercises play a crucial role in injury prevention. Diet can significantly impact tendon health and performance. As athletes age, training methods must adapt to prevent injuries. Different jumping techniques can affect knee stress differently. Warm-ups are essential to prevent injuries, especially as one ages. Cool-downs can aid recovery and reduce next-day soreness. Managing jump volume and intensity is key to longevity in the sport. Listening to one's body is crucial for effective training. Jordan has never used injections or stem cells for recovery. He emphasizes conservative management and load management for knee issues. Plyometrics should be approached with caution, focusing on depth jumps and seated jumps. Single effort jumps are preferred over multi-effort jumps to avoid knee strain. Lifting techniques should be adjusted based on individual comfort and pain levels. Muscle imbalances should be addressed by strengthening weaker muscles rather than focusing solely on balance. Footwear can significantly impact knee health; personal preference varies. Pain management during training can involve isometric exercises and adjustments in technique. Common tendon issues arise from excessive jumping without proper recovery and management. Weight training is essential for dunkers to prevent injuries and improve performance.

Coaches Justin, Amanda, and William offer programming, form coaching, diet coaching and more, here!   In this episode of the Bacon Bibles and Barbells podcast, Coaches Justin, Bill, and Amanda discuss the roles of chiropractors and physical therapists in health and rehabilitation. They share personal experiences and insights on the effectiveness of these professionals, emphasizing the importance of individualized care, progressive overload in therapy, and the limitations of chiropractic adjustments. The conversation highlights the need for strength training in recovery and the potential impact of the placebo effect in treatment outcomes. In this conversation, the coaches delve into the complexities of back pain, chiropractic care, and the importance of movement and strength training. They discuss the physiological aspects of back pain, the risks associated with neck manipulation, and the origins of chiropractic practice, highlighting its controversial history. The coaches emphasize the need to identify quackery in chiropractic practices, the significance of movement and strength training in pain management, and the role of massage and physical therapy. They advocate for a holistic approach to health that prioritizes movement and strength over reliance on supplements and chiropractic adjustments.   Takeaways Physical therapists are often utilized for rehab post-injury or surgery. The effectiveness of physical therapy can vary based on the therapist's knowledge and approach. Progressive overload is crucial in physical therapy for effective recovery. Chiropractic adjustments may provide temporary pain relief but do not create lasting changes in spinal alignment. Individual attention from a physical therapist can lead to better outcomes than cookie-cutter approaches. Pain management in physical therapy should not lead to prolonged discomfort post-session. Strength training is essential for long-term injury prevention and recovery. The placebo effect can play a significant role in perceived benefits from chiropractic care. Finding a chiropractor with a sports rehab background may yield better results. Elderly patients often require strength training rather than just range of motion exercises. Chiropractic manipulation can provide neuromuscular facilitation. Most back pain stems from muscle atrophy, particularly in the erectors. Neck manipulation is never appropriate due to associated risks. Chiropractic practice has a controversial history and origins. Identifying quackery in chiropractic practices is crucial for patient safety. Movement and strength training are essential for pain management. Massage therapy can be more beneficial than chiropractic adjustments. Percussion massage can help relax tight muscles effectively. Holistic approaches to health prioritize movement and strength. Lifestyle changes are key to reducing pain and improving overall health.

Emotional trauma, past experiences, and spiritual beliefs all play significant roles in a patient's recovery journey. It is imperative for practitioners to engage in open conversations with patients about their emotional and spiritual wellbeing. By addressing these areas, practitioners can uncover underlying issues that might be hindering a patient's physical recovery. Encouraging patients to share their stories and providing a safe, non-judgmental space can facilitate deeper healing and create a stronger practitioner-patient relationship.   Chronic Illness and Emotional Trauma   A common thread observed among patients with chronic illnesses is the impact of past emotional trauma. It is essential for practitioners to recognize these emotional hurdles as potential impediments to recovery. Patients often carry invisible burdens from past events, which can affect their health. Practitioners should incorporate questions about emotional history in their assessments to better understand the root causes of persistent health issues. Addressing these emotional traumas can significantly enhance treatment efficacy and patient wellbeing.   Addressing Adrenal Health   Adrenal health plays a vital role in a patient's overall energy and recovery capacity. Often overlooked, adrenal fatigue can exacerbate both physical and mental health issues. Practitioners should consider assessing adrenal function as part of their diagnostic process, particularly when patients exhibit symptoms of chronic stress and fatigue. Supportive measures, such as adrenal supplements and lifestyle interventions, may help restore balance and improve patient outcomes. Highlighting the energetic impact of lifestyle choices can empower patients to make informed decisions about their health.   Optimizing Treatment for Recovery   Effective recovery strategies involve not only addressing symptoms but also incorporating holistic approaches. Practitioners should explore integrating various treatment modalities, such as frequency-specific microcurrent therapy, which can support both physical healing and emotional balance. Customizing treatments to account for individual patient needs and responses is key. Assessing factors like adrenal health, lifestyle habits, and emotional wellbeing can lead to tailored interventions that promote comprehensive healing.   Navigating Patient Lifestyle Choices   Practitioners must often guide patients through lifestyle adjustments that can significantly influence recovery. Helping patients understand the implications of habits such as smoking, excessive caffeine, and sugar consumption is crucial. Establishing clear guidelines and providing supportive resources can aid patients in making beneficial lifestyle changes. Additionally, practitioners should emphasize the importance of quality sleep and its relationship to healing and overall health.   By expanding the scope of patient care to include emotional, spiritual, and lifestyle factors, medical practitioners can enhance their effectiveness and improve patient outcomes. Emphasizing open communication, holistic assessment, and patient empowerment can create a more comprehensive and compassionate healthcare approach. As practitioners continue to refine their methods, incorporating these insights can serve as a foundation for more effective and personalized patient care.

What do you do when your pain becomes so intense, so overwhelming, that the only place left to turn is the emergency room—and even that doesn't feel safe?In this raw and revealing episode, Lyndsay Soprano opens up about her own lived experience with chronic pain, including CRPS and Lyme disease, and the harsh reality of seeking help in an emergency medical system that often doesn't know what to do with people like her. The ER isn't always a place of comfort—it can be cold, dismissive, and downright dangerous when you're already at your breaking point.She's joined by Dr. Jim Keany, an emergency physician who brings honesty and insight to the conversation. Together, they unpack the disconnect between chronic pain patients and emergency care providers, the emotional toll of pain that goes far beyond the physical, and the desperate need for a healthcare system that sees people as whole humans—not just symptoms.Lyndsay and Dr. Keany discuss the deeper layers of chronic pain—how trauma can amplify it, how isolation can worsen it, and how the system often misses the mark. They touch on the struggles of medication management, the power of journaling, and how tools like hypnosis can actually help. Most of all, they stress the importance of treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. With empathy, advocacy, and even a little hope, healing becomes more possible.If you've ever felt dismissed, gaslit, or broken by your pain—or by the people meant to help you, this episode is for you.Find Dr. Jim Keany Online Here:LinkedIn: Dr. Jim KeanyFind The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastEpisode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to Chronic Pain and Trauma(03:04) Emergency Situations and Pain Management(05:54) The Role of Emergency Medicine in Chronic Pain(08:48) Understanding Pain: Psychological and Physical Aspects(12:00) Navigating the Healthcare System(14:57) Alternative Pain Management Strategies(17:51) The Importance of Whole Person Care(21:00) Supporting Loved Ones in Chronic Pain(23:54) The Role of Journaling in Pain Management(26:50) Global Perspectives on Pain and Suffering(30:03) Hope and Future in Pain Management

His internship at the University of Minnesota was a transformative experience. He faced multiple injuries that complicated his recovery process. Zach developed a personalized jumper's knee protocol based on research and self-education. Communication with coaches was crucial for managing his injury and training. He critiqued traditional physical therapy methods for being too standardized and ineffective. Zach found success in using specific exercises that targeted his knee pain. He emphasized the psychological impact of dealing with chronic pain and injury. Zach's experience led him to help others with similar injuries through education and support. He believes in the importance of critical thinking in rehabilitation and recovery.  Zach had to gauge his pain threshold during activities. Initial sharp pain in the knee indicated a possible partial tear. Tendinopathy symptoms developed over time with different sensations. Isometrics provided pain relief for Zach for several months. Athletes often face resistance from trainers when seeking alternative rehab methods. Zach's recent knee injury was a result of heavy eccentric loading. Effective rehab requires finding the highest possible entry point. Rehabilitation should focus on loading the muscle, not just the joint. Zach's approach includes using RPR and square one techniques. Rehab is about applying proven methods to individual cases. Ground substance in tendons consists of proteoglycans and water. Aging leads to a loss of spring-like properties in tendons. Pathology in tendons can develop long before pain is felt. General health significantly impacts tendon health. Weight gain adds extra load on tendons, increasing injury risk. High blood sugar can stiffen tendons due to sugar cross-links. Dietary choices can influence tendon health and recovery. Collagen supplementation may benefit tendon health, especially if deficient in nutrients. Environmental factors like circadian rhythms can affect tendon recovery. A holistic approach is essential for optimal tendon health.
