Thanks a lot Dr. Andrea for your excellent informative videos it's really very helpful. The first comment 😊 you should Pin my comments 😃
Thank you! Will do!
@@DrAndreaFurlan Thanks Dr. so nice of you.
Thank you Dr Furlan🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Good Morning DR A.Furlan,I am encourage to listen always to your Excellency of your educational video.I got lots of lesson which I can used it for myself for it is very educational.I am having Fibromyalgia and I had a good doctor but yours eplaination is much more distinctive. Thank you so much!
@@DrAndreaFurlan I have been diagnosed with “chronic pain” for about 20 years. In my experience (USA & UK) “chronic pain” is simply 24/7 pain & NOT psychological pain as you stated. What is correct?
I know that pain doctors “don’t like to treat the MRI” but I’m one of those patients who’s pains can easily be predicted by looking at my scans, my damaged spine, discs & nerves explain my pain. Should I stop saying that I suffer from “chronic pain” when talking to doctors in England? (My problems started while I lived in the USA & I’ve only recently returned to live in England.
Thank you doctor for showing me how to explain own body pain front of doctor.
Actually, I may share this video with physicians treating chronic pain. I think many have forgotten how to sincerely treat patients chronic pain.
Thanks Ana
Totally I agree!!
I take a small plastic mallet with me. To explain my knee pain to the doctor I hit the doctor on his knee so he can feel my pain. Works like magic.
Thank you your videos help patients SELF ADVOCATE... this is a critical skill to have especially w/complicated conditions.
Communication tools!
Hi Cara, Please consider subscribing to this channel.
Very glad to get this information. I get so frustrated trying to explain my pain that I flounder around looking for the words I want to use. If I rehearse this method at home and carry notes, I believe it would relieve some of the stress and awkwardness I feel and help the doctor understand what information I’m trying to convey to them, making it easier to get treatment I need. Thank You.

Thank you for taking the time to explain the S.O.C.R.A.T.E.S method! Many of my doctors seem to use this and just hand the form to you without much explanation. They ask to just complete it in office that morning and its difficut to remember or even have the time to dedicate to completing the form. Its wonderful you provided the form as well=) I can complete this as you suggest ,but prior to the appointment and create an thorough legend. I wish my doctors would email their form to me prior to the appointment ,but with your form on hand I can transfer the information to their form and not miss anything because I'm rushing. Thank you for informative video and coordinating the connection to your other videos that pair well with the topic! Blessings to you and your team for helping so many who live with chronic pain! Warm Regards and Stay in Good Health! Linda
Blessings to you too, Linda!
As always most informative 👏
Wow! My last 2 pain management specialist appointments wouldn’t be 40 minutes combined. I waited for over 6 months for each. I left crying on both occasions and still feel as bad as I did beforehand 😢😭
sorry to hear that.
Thank you so much. This will help me give better information to my doctors and they will in turn be less stressed at having so much to get through in such a short space of time!
Hi Amanda. Glad it was helpful!

Another great, helpful video. I used to write on a piece of paper everything I want to tell and/or ask my doctor. This helps a lot since very often face to face with the doctor a lot of other stuff goes to the head. Your tip in this video is fantastic.
That's a great idea!
Excellent and very helpful.

Really interesting topic about pain
Hi Christine, thank you for your feedback.
Great video to know pain.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you Doctor..
Multumesc. 🌹
Thank you
Try to find the exact word to describe my pain becomes difficult and some doctors do not have the time to wait for the patient to come up with the right word . They even pick out a word for us and being conscious of the time we just nod our head if it is somewhat closer to what we want to say. So i try to write it down and have all my questions ready, but still miss out on some .
Thank you for your video.
Dr Furlan, you are what a REAL doctor should be! Respect.
Would like to ask, is there any hope for pain relief for my elderly mother who has pain originating from a damaged disc radiating all the way down to her leg, she wakes up from pain at night crying some times. Strong medications the neurologist had given her knock her off (severely disorientated), the physio she's doing doesn’t help much, she's in her 80s. Please help if you can, she can hardly walk now and getting soo depressed from the constant pain.
Thank you in advance.

Nice, the next time i won't have to call to my mom

Good madam
Thanks a lot
Wish you practiced in upstate New York. I’ve been to three general practitioners, One renal doctor, two surgeons, and four pain management clinics. Only help I have had is with opiates. Can’t take over the counter pain meds because I only have one kidney
Hi, and thank you for your video. wow i wished we in the uk had 90 min consultations, mine was 30 mins at most and now waiting over a year to hopefully see someone more qualified. i hear what you say about hot and cold treatment but my body must be confused as sometimes a hot shower feels good(although some hydrotherapy exercises put me in severe pain) but an ice pack also works on some parts of my body, i guess this maybe why i confuse doctors. thank you again x.

@@DrAndreaFurlan O.k.😍😇armo 12 is here i dont have cronic pains and my elterns are o.k. i fix that hip.I was fall
Doctors in the United States give you 15 minutes tops. No one hour. Never 90. Ever. The insurance company will drop them. It’s not Canada.
In Canada, family doctors spend 10 minutes with patients, but in my clinic, we are pain doctors, and we spend at least 1 hour with new patients and at least 30 mintues with follow-ups.
@@DrAndreaFurlan it can’t be done here, in USA, seriously. No matter where you are. Congratulations that you are thorough and care. The Brazilian people are warm. Thanks.
Good to know sometimes hard to gauge when the body uses so much adrenaline to get moving or going, alot of times blocks/mask the pain.
❤❤❤
thanks

I explained my pain to two different doctors and then got an appointment with pain management. It was very frustrating because they messed up my appointments three times. When I finally spoke to the doctor at pain management and went through my story again and she told me, I've looked at your records. He then told me they couldn't help me unless I wanted steroid shots in my hip or a referral to a surgeon. It's very frustrating, I've tried all the things, exercising at home, physical therapy, chiropractic and nothing has really helped. I have Medicare so they do not cover very much and when they do the patient is responsible for 20% of whatever it is, such as physical therapy. All I was asking for was a little medication help to get me through the harder days but instead I'm going to get to be best friends with my recliner and the remote. I was made to feel like that I would probably abuse the drugs and become an addict.
Ma'am, do physical pain tolerance and mental pain tolerance enhance psychological power and psychological strength?
Dr.Furlan let me explain about the pain? and why?
Please d is thier any solve to heel spur and planter pleaaaaaaaaaase
I already have a video about plantar fasciitis on my channel.
thank you very much I am chronic inflammation in nerves And nerves .. And cartilage of my neck . Numbness of the brain and face . What treatment ? Numbness.🌹Thanks

Thank you.
Moja kochana Pani Doktor, bardzo dziękuję. Chciałabym, powiedzieć to innym Lekarzom w Polsce. Chorym potrzebny jest czas, aby wysłuchać naszych nieumiejętności przedstawienia BÓLU i swoich dolegliwości. Lekarz powinien przedstawić nam to co chce usłyszeć od nas o naszym BÓLU i aby mógł zrozumieć.
Pani Doktor i Pedagog, czyni swoim uczniom i studentom aby chorzy mogli chwalić i wielbić za mądrość przyszłych lekarzy. Chory nauczy się żyć z bólem stosując przeciwbólowe lekarstwa bo brak pieniędzy na specjalistę jak to niestety w Polsce bywa i wysyłają od Ajfasza do Kajfasza aż umrzesz. Dobra
Porada to już sukces bo jest świadomość nieumiejętności.
Z Niskim ukłonem pięknie dziękuję.
Sol kalçamın içinde iğne kırılmış gibi ağrım var uzun süredir yaşıyorum ağrı kesici aldığımda fayda görüyorum sonra yine aynı teşekkürler

Hi, I have been going to pain doctors and physical therapy and I tell them it only hurts when I stand up and walk.
Two minutes later while I am sitting down they will ask me how much pain I am in at this moment. So I tell them again it only hurts when I walk and it hurts alot I can't walk very far because of the pain so I would call that 8, 9, 10. My pain has not gotten any better with medication, shots, nerve oblation, back and knee but it doesn't hurt when I am sitting down or in bed. What do you think? Help!!!
I understand this i am experiencing the same thing

Hello again Dr Furlan. It is hard to explain to your doctor about your pain, because they are in a hurry and don't want to answer hardly any questions. !!!! This is a common problem all over the U.S. they want the money 💲 but don't want you to ask questions. Many doctors don't want to spend much time with you, they schedule to many people for appointments at a time.I just want to let you know how it is here thanks have a great evening. !!!!!

does pain show up on test
No, pain is subjective
Was recently diagnosed with osteoporosis arthritis in the hips and in the spine and it hurts really bad hard time moving around question is does osteoporosis arthritis go away
A new pain scale is needed. This one doesn't cut it. It's realative. We could live with extreme pain levels because we've had it for so long. So our 5 would be the average persons 20.
Butyfull
Thanks
I have back pain. Please see the Instagram messages. Please help me

Thanks for replying I am taking regular medicine but now it is not working as honestly as before so I wanted to get some advice from you. I used to work before medicine but now it is not working.
Here in FRANCE...we have only 15 minutes to explain...not 1 seconde..more...I am a patient ....it s really frustating for me... and if you want continue the conversation...you have to take an other appointement...and you have often 1 week..To WAIT...
Hi found the best thing to do is to get a scan that way you will find where the pain is coming from you know what they say scans don't lie have a good on
Hi Maura, I disagree with you. Bone scans, MRIs, X-rays do not show where the pain is coming from in the majority of patients. We use those tests after we do a pain history and physical exam if necessary. It is a wrong idea to think that imaging tests will show where the pain is coming from.
@@DrAndreaFurlan when I got my scan the doctor told me that scans don't lie that was after the 1 operation then got scan to see what was going on that was I got told then had 2 operation took 1year to get back to myself that was 2 operation in 11 days had lumber trouble in my back still have now I am getting very good treatments from the pain doctor life is so much better tg so there is hope
The 0-10 severity scale seems like a test of your imagination. I can imagine some pretty awful things...
I wouldn't have any confidence that, e.g., a "3" today and a "3" two weeks from now are the same thing, though. I can't compare the two directly and I don't have any fixed reference point to compare them indirectly.
