@DanLairdMD I put rice in a pillow case and tie it in a knot. 2-3 minutes in the microwave, and if you are a fan of essential oils you can also put some in for relaxation, lavender is a personal favorite!

[Valerie Hruschak @Val_Hruschak]

Enthusiastic to share our findings in @PainMedJournal on an innovative psychosocial treatment model for chronic pain patients at risk for opioid misuse. https://t.co/Vd0cziMVP0 #opioidmisuse #chronicpain #HarmReduction #Naloxone #peersupport #selfmanagement

[PAIN Journal @PAINthejournal]

@Val_Hruschak et al. found that, as a result of social distancing in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, chronic pain severity & interference worsened. https://t.co/K0p4Izjp9a #PAINJournal #GlobalYear2021

[Valerie Hruschak @Val_Hruschak]

Excited to share our work @BrighamAnes in @PAINthejournal on chronic pain patients which findings demonstrated significant increases in pain severity and interference due to social isolation. #COVID19 #SocialDistancing #pain #AcademicChatter

[Dr. Sean Mackey @DrSeanMackey]

Earlier this year, @IASPpain introduced the revised definition of pain. #PainAwarenessMonth

[Dr. Sean Mackey @DrSeanMackey]

IASP has released a new definition for pain: “An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling that associated with, actual or potential tissue damage” This is a minor revision of the prior definition but with six key notes. https://t.co/vSvgImsMlc

[Valerie Hruschak @Val_Hruschak]

There is a postdoc position @BWHAnesthesia in human clinical translational pain neuroscience is available in the laboratory of Dr. Kristin Schreiber, Department of Anesthesiology at Harvard Medical School. If your interested, please reach out! https://t.co/eIrqW1h4ki #pain

Beautifully written article that supports our lab's (Dr.Schreiber) current open label placebo study. Makes you wonder... will placebos find their way to mainstream medicine? #placebo #nocebo #psychological #surgicalpain #opioidcrisis @BWHAnesthesia

Check out this article about the Placebo Effect, with some interesting information from @JeffreyMogil https://t.co/tTlL5O1G0C
