A short talk by Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter describing joint pain as a multifaceted problem that includes mechanical limitations, depression, anxiety, loss of ability to perform valued activities, and ongoing uncertainty about functioning. The speaker emphasizes the broad, all-encompassing impact of joint pain and suggests there are better treatment approaches.
So what is joint pain really? How does it really affect us? Joint pain is not just that mechanical sense that your joint cannot be trusted. It's the depression and anxiety. You might not be able to perform those activities that you love. It's the constant guesswork as to whether you're going to be able to complete this task or perform that task. Joint pain is an all encompassing issue that affects so many of us and we have better ways. Treat again.
