DESCRIPTION

This is a very entertaining 8-minute video that can be shown in class.  It highlights the problems of chronic pain, treatment, diagrams, and a case.

From the TED site:

“We think of pain as a symptom, but there are cases where the nervous system develops feedback loops and pain becomes a terrifying disease in itself. Starting with the story of a girl whose sprained wrist turned into a nightmare, Elliot Krane talks about the complex mystery of chronic pain, and reviews the facts we’re just learning about how it works and how to treat it.”
