Weekly nuggets of pain science news and insight, usually 100-300 words, with the occasional longer post. The blog is the “director’s commentary” on the core content of PainScience.com: a library of major articles and books about common painful problems and popular treatments. See the blog archives or updates for the whole site.

Particularly highly recommended reading today: it looked like a weight loss story by the headline — How Science Babe Lost (and kept off) 90 Pounds — but it turned out to be a hair-raising chronic pain story as well. And a running story! So I really have to recommend it, and probably re-read it, and cite it and quote Yvette “Science Babe” d’Entremont here on PainScience.com in seven places. (Ugh, I can never just read anymore!) Not only is it a story about weight loss, chronic pain, and running, but it’s great demonstration of how a smart, rational person grapples with extremely challenging medical mysteries.
