TED Talk on Chronic Pain

As mentioned in yesterday's post, today we see an 8 minute talk from Ted.com (see link to the article incl. vid. below), by Dr. Elliot Krane, about chronic pain.
He has 25 years experience of pain management and outlines the case for chronic pain being its own disease. He speaks very clearly, articulately and with enough humour to keep his audience's interest and although his chosen case study has a particularly nasty neurological complaint, it's very easy to apply everything you hear to neuropathy problems. Definitely worth a look.
