Description:
With a foreword by a pioneer of Pain Clinics, Dr. Keith Budd, this pocket-sized book is a handy reference for family practitioners and medical educators in musculoskeletal medicine. In addition to explaining what musculoskeletal medicine is, this book discusses pain in: head, neck, shoulder and arm, chest, lower trunk, pelvis, and leg. It then discusses whether musculoskeletal treatment will work in these cases, and casts a short look at the future of musculoskeletal medicine. In particular it clarifies what is not within the realm of musculoskeletal medicine - neurological complaints, orthopedic problems and the inflammatory diseases in particular.
