Traveling With Chronic Pain | Practical Tips from a Physician Assistant

I'm a Physician Assistant and also have chronic pain, sometimes traveling with chronic pain can be REALLY difficult and discouraging - but here are some practical tips I have used alternately throughout my traveling days and with my patients that I have found useful. These are non-invasive, non-narcotic ways to help the pain, but as always, please consult your Primary Care doctor to see if there is a bigger issue going on that needs these kinds of interventions.

My motto is, if it works for YOU then keep doing what works.
