Winter has settled in and that generally means more aches and pains.
A new report indicates that pain is costing the economy over $7-billion annually in lost productivity.
Dr. Yvette Lu says pain management is complex and it’s important to talk to your doctor or health care provider to find a solution.
Lu says most of us aren’t aware of targeted treatment options.
She says options include topical creams, manual therapies, exercise and injections.
She notes two-thirds of Canadians experience pain every week.
