Informações:

Synopsis

On today's episode we talk about the issue of pain control & just why your doctor is afraid to prescribe you adequate pain medication. The motivation behind this episode was two-fold, on my recent Lunch and Learn survey it was a topic that the community wanted hear about (the topic of opioid use & pain control) as well as the most recent celebratory death of Mac Miller, a well known hip hop artists. Listen to the episode today to see why physicians everywhere are so hesitant to prescribing opioid medications & the impact it has had on the medical community.   Listen to today's shows to also hear some startling facts on opioid deaths, use of synthetic opioids and more.  Listen on  Apple Podcast, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, iHeartRadio, Spotify Sponsors: Lunch and Learn Community Online Store (code Empower10) Resources: CDC - Opioid abuse Mac Miller Album Poor Pain Control in Minorities Social Links: Join the lunch and learn community - https://www.drpierresblog.com/joinlunchlearnpod Fol
