More than 100 million Americans suffer from some form of chronic pain and up to 8 million of those are prescribed prescription opioids, which has arguably led\u00a0to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drugabuse.gov\/about-nida\/legislative-activities\/testimony-to-congress\/2015\/americas-addiction-to-opioids-heroin-prescription-drug-abuse\" target=\"_blank\">a prevalent addiction problem<\/a> in this country. Research is beginning to show that painkillers are not the best way to treat all forms of chronic pain\u2014though for some cases opioids may still be necessary.<\/p>\n<p>While the root cause of many forms of chronic pain are not totally understood\u2014some frustrated patients are told their symptoms are just in their heads\u2014a\u00a0common thread is being examined. Identifying the\u00a0underlying root cause of inflammation might be the key to treating chronic pain at its source, without prescription drugs. Functional medicine physicians <a href=\"http:\/\/drhyman.com\/blog\/2010\/07\/11\/is-your-body-burning-up-with-hidden-inflammation-2\/\" target=\"_blank\">like Dr. Mark Hyman<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kaplanclinic.com\/the-kaplan-team\/gary-kaplan\/\" target=\"_blank\">Gary Kaplan, D.O.<\/a>,\u00a0have dedicated their life&#8217;s work to treating patients without medication\u00a0by identifying the source of the problem in their bloodstream\u2014a trigger\u00a0known as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.prevention.com\/food\/healthy-eating-tips\/fish-and-plant-based-proteins-reduce-inflammation\" target=\"_blank\">the C-reactive protein<\/a>\u00a0which increases when there&#8217;s inflammation in the body.<\/p>\n<p>Diet also plays a crucial role, and more doctors are\u00a0recommending\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mindbodygreen.com\/0-10260\/12-foods-to-fight-inflammation.html\" target=\"_blank\">anti-inflammatory foods<\/a> like oils and nuts rich in healthy fats, antioxidant packed berries, fish like salmon and sardines, and even bone broth. Avoiding refined or\u00a0processed foods, excessive red meat or\u00a0grain-fed animals, sugars, gluten, and dairy is also advised. But a proper diet is just half the battle\u2014exercise is crucial to reducing inflammation, and <a href=\"http:\/\/kutv.com\/features\/health\/check-your-health\/check-your-health-treating-chronic-pain-safely\" target=\"_blank\">therapeutic practices like yoga<\/a>\u00a0are becoming more common amongst the doctor&#8217;s orders.<\/p>\n<p>Read more from <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.charlotteobserver.com\/news\/article55174020.html\" target=\"_blank\">The Charlotte Observer<\/a><\/em>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nih.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">National Institutes for Health<\/a> found pain is one of the leading reasons Americans are turning to complementary health approaches such as yoga, massage and meditation.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>A generation ago, doctors were wary about the use of opioids to manage common pain problems. That began to change in the 1990s as drugs such as OxyContin\u2014touted to be less addictive\u2014were introduced. Painkillers first used only for extreme cases, such as cancer patients near the end of life, became commonly prescribed for many types of chronic pain.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>As the volume of pain-pill prescriptions rose so did addiction problems. Opioid overdoses in the United States have gone up 200 percent since 2000.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Research is now showing opioid medication may not be an effective way to manage long-term pain, according to research published early last year in the Annals of Internal Medicine, and doctors at Cabell Huntington Hospital&#8217;s Pain Management Center and St. Mary&#8217;s Medical Center&#8217;s Pain Relief Center say there are actually a lot of better, safer options for chronic pain sufferers.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Since <a href=\"http:\/\/wanderlust.com\/journal\/are-you-addicted-to-stress\/\" target=\"_blank\">stress is another key factor<\/a> to consider when diagnosing and treating chronic pain, other\u00a0relaxation practices <a href=\"http:\/\/wanderlust.com\/journal\/what-the-research-says-meditation-can-improve-heart-health-manage-stress-and-relieve-pain\/\" target=\"_blank\">like meditation<\/a> and acupuncture have proven beneficial as <a href=\"http:\/\/gazettereview.com\/2016\/01\/natural-solutions-alternatives-for-lyrica-cure-chronic-pain-holistically\/\" target=\"_blank\">an alternative to Lyrica<\/a>, a powerful drug that is commonly\u00a0prescribed to treat nerve and muscle pain. Opioid addiction can often lead to depression, and <a href=\"http:\/\/time.com\/3663907\/treating-pain-opioids-painkillers\/\" target=\"_blank\">the NIH is urging the\u00a0medical community<\/a>\u00a0to integrate an individualized, multidisciplinary approach to patients dealing with chronic pain, to help combat the addiction epidemic.<\/p>\n<p>Among alternative, more holistic approaches,\u00a0medical grade marijuana is becoming\u00a0increasingly popular to treat a wider array of ailments than before.\u00a0In Illinois, doctors are working to expand the list of illnesses and ailments\u2014many of which include\u00a0chronic pain diagnoses caused by trauma, autism, <a href=\"http:\/\/wanderlust.com\/journal\/moving-beyond-a-thank-you\/\" target=\"_blank\">and PTSD<\/a>\u2014that qualify for medical marijuana treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Dr.\u00a0Leslie Mendoza Temple, the head of the\u00a0Illinois\u00a0Medical Cannabis Advisory Board, recently spoke with <a href=\"http:\/\/chicagotonight.wttw.com\/2016\/01\/25\/illinois-medical-cannabis-advisory-board-wants-expand-qualifying-conditions\" target=\"_blank\">WTTW Chicago Tonight<\/a> about her practice of treating\u00a0chronic pain with holistic modalities:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>\u201cIn the kind of practice that I have in family medicine and integrative medicine, we\u2019ve been combining holistic therapies for patients who have chronic pain and other symptoms that are really hard to treat with standard medicine.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>\u201cChronic pain is difficult to treat and if we look at the number of narcotic painkiller deaths that have occurred in this country, we are facing an epidemic of people dying from overdoses because their pain isn\u2019t adequately managed. So they keep taking their pain medicines, they slip into respiratory depression and they can die,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd we\u2019re seeing more of that mortality grow.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>\u201cIn fact in terms of deaths from marijuana, we haven\u2019t seen any. You can make bad decisions and then die from an impaired driving accident from smoking marijuana and being under the influence,\u201d she added.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Of course every case of chronic pain is different, and there is no way to know for sure whether or not prescribed opioid use is detrimental in every situation\u2014in some cases the need for such drugs is unavoidable.\u00a0But as more doctors turn to alternative means to treat their patients in an attempt\u00a0to get to the root cause of their problem\u2014versus just masking\u00a0the issue\u00a0with drugs\u2014it is a clear sign that the way we receive\u00a0health care is starting to change, for the better.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/live-wanderlust-fest.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/AndreaRiceNewHeadshot.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-36894\" src=\"http:\/\/live-wanderlust-fest.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/AndreaRiceNewHeadshot.jpg\" alt=\"AndreaRiceNewHeadshot\" width=\"271\" height=\"299\" \/><\/a>Andrea Rice is the Practice and Community Editor for Wanderlust Media.
