To truly understand the cost of pain in America it helps to have some understanding of how many or us are suffering from chronic pain, what it is costing us to treat ourselves, the impact of the opioid crisis, and what alternatives to prescription opioids we have. This is the sixth in a 6-part series examining the Cost of Pain.
Did You Know?
Unbelievably, more than 165,000 people have died in the United States from prescription opioid overdoses. That number is unacceptable! Far too many people are being prescribed opioids for conditions that can be treated safely with chiropractic care. Dr. Joseph Merckling and everyone at Merckling Family Chiropractic can help determine if the chronic headaches, TMJ, back or neck pain you may be suffering from can be treated, and potentially cured, with chiropractic care.
