It's a wonderful time to spend with family and friends, and we go out more and eat more. But, this time of year can cause flare-ups. And, we don't want to ruin our holidays by dealing with pain. Here is how we can prepare for the worst while hoping for the best!
*Know your triggers and your limits - try to ensure your plans work within those limits
*Make your flare up plan/kit – much like asthmatics have an asthma management plan, we think it’s good for someone with persistent pain to have a plan for how to prevent and manage a pain flare when it happens
*We suggest having a plan for mild pain (to nip it in the bud) right through to what to do for severe pain
*Pack things you may need if the pain does flare – you don’t want to be caught out!
And if you aren't sure what you could do, possibly consider asking a health care professional as to what you could do to lessen your pain day to day. Reaching out for help could start your pain management journey in a positive way.
