@DerekGriffin86 Hmm, could it be to do with tendons representation in the humunculus/ somatosensory cortex, are there variants in peripheral nociceptive stimulation as gustin et al 2012 observed cortical reorganisation in neuropathic pain patients but not in non-neuropathic chronic pain

@DrDemetry @DerekGriffin86 Thanks @DrDemetry I’ll give it a read,

Great insight on physio edge 080 on ankle syndesmosis injuries with @ChrisMorgan10 and @davidphysioedge

[James McDonald @JMcPhysio]

@PhysioMeScience Seems to be a common theme of activities related to empowerment that improve chronic pain outcomes ie healthy diet; open water swimming; Thai chi; wooly pants, the lack of specificity suggests emotional pain triggers and are empowerment related activities the way to go ?

Amazing ! #onepercentbetter #AnythingIsPossible

@AdamMeakins @AndyMcdonough1 MSK definitely paved the way in that sense, maybe not the same ratio as in ward based and rehab teams but seems to be a few top band roles about in frailty

[James McDonald @JMcPhysio]

@AdamMeakins @AndyMcdonough1 Not all physios are trying to become prescribers, it’s still only an additional skill for those best placed to fill the gaps where a local integrated care model may need a helping hand from another profession

[James McDonald @JMcPhysio]

@AdamMeakins Rights to prescribe means rights to reduce dosages and well placed to provide non pharmaceutical alternatives, how many of these patients have you found already on the list above who would benefit from an appropriate medication reduction to get back on track?
