🎗️ 𝗜𝘁𝘀 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸: 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 & 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻 🎗️

This National Pain Week - July 21-27, we're focusing on a significant health challenge affecting millions of Australians: chronic pain. At Coolangatta Medical Centre servicing the southern Gold Coast and Tweed Coast, we want to create awareness on this complex condition and remind you that you don't have to suffer in silence.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻? Chronic pain isn't just pain that lasts a long time; it's pain that persists for three or more months. Unlike acute pain (which protects us from injury), chronic pain serves no protective function. It's often due to a "reprogramming" of the nervous system, where pain signals become more frequent and amplified.

Chronic pain can significantly impact every aspect of life – from work and sleep to social activities and emotional wellbeing. It affects over 3.6 million Australians and is the leading cause of disability in our country.

𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝘆𝗽𝗲𝘀: Chronic pain can manifest in different ways, including:
𝗡𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻: Linked to tissue injury (e.g., osteoarthritis).
𝗡𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻: Associated with nerve tissue injury (e.g., sciatica).
𝗡𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 pain: Arising from altered pain processing without clear tissue damage (e.g., fibromyalgia).

𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻: A "Whole Person" Approach Effective management often involves a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach. This means looking at the "biological, psychological, and social" aspects of your pain, and may include a combination of strategies like medication, movement, diet, relaxation techniques, and cognitive strategies. It often requires a team of health professionals.

What are YOU doing for your wellbeing if you live with chronic pain? While chronic pain can be debilitating, effective management is possible and starts with your GP.

𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗻:
✅ 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀.
✅ 𝗔 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻.
✅ 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻.
✅ 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀.

Don't Live With Unmanaged Pain. Despite its prevalence, only a small percentage of Australians with chronic pain can access multidisciplinary pain management. At Coolangatta Medical Centre servicing the southern Gold Coast and Tweed Coast, we are committed to supporting our patients.

If you are experiencing chronic pain, or if you know someone who is, please know that help is available. Book an appointment with our compassionate GPs today to discuss your pain, explore management options, and create a personalised plan to improve your quality of life.
