Dr Diarmuid McCoy, Specialist Pain Medicine Physician

Pain is a widespread problem but what causes it? Is pain an illusion? Why do some patients experience higher or lower levels than others? How do we help people who deal with pain live longer, healthier and happier lives?
We need to actively listen to people with pain and even though we can’t see it, we can try to work with those who suffer and help them live healthier, happier lives.
“Pain comes from physical, mental and spiritual damage and can be triggered by conditions of the mind, heart as well as by physical illness.‘ Dr Millie
