A Surprising Cause of Pain in a Patient with Cancer: A Case Discussion

As clinicians it is crucial that we are aware of our blinders.

Sometimes the obvious cause of pain isn't the actual cause of pain and we need to be willing to look past our first impressions.

This week I discuss the case of one of my patients (de-identified of course). He had widely metastatic cancer and a pain that I couldn't control with medication. Come find out what worked to relieve his pain.
