Pain. We have all felt it over the course of living our lives. However, it isn’t often discussed or attributed as a non-motor symptom of Parkinson’s disease. And yet, it can be one of those symptoms that most negatively impacts our quality of life. How common is it that people with Parkinson’s experience pain? Is it due to the disease or another cause? Does it matter in how to treat the pain? Where should we go for help?
In this episode, we talk with an expert specialist in pain management who will break down the five categories of pain in Parkinson’s disease and help us understand the treatment options for each of those categories.
Whether you have experienced pain in the past, present or not yet, you don’t want to miss out on this very infomative episode.
