While doctors are often quick to prescribe painkillers, one of the most effective methods for long-term pain management doesn't come in any pill form. More specifically, pain is best managed using physical movement, exercise, rehabilitation therapies, and cognitive behavioural therapy.
"It's important to remember that the main treatments that are recommended for these pain conditions are not medication treatments."
