Have you Wondered? by Dr. Cesar A. Euribe

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED??
 
Why plants are green?
Why some people are mean?
Why dogs became pets?
Why do we have pain?
Why do people seem to feel more or less pain than others?

 
Well I can at least help with the pain questions.
 
       
       We feel pain pain as a signal to avoid injury or more harm. It, like fear  is a protective mechanism.  The differences in perception of pain are mainly related to genetics (protoplasm) and environment. Like everything else in our lives.  

When I used to circumcise newborn boys we (in a barbaric way) strapped them to a papoose and proceeded with the mutilation. No anesthetic. Some babies just laid and slept, others didn't stop crying and everything in-between. Obviously they felt different amount of pain. 

 
     PURE GENETICS (protoplasm) no socialization, secondary gain in other words no influence from their environment.  Family characteristics and up-bringing will start setting their influence almost immediately either emotionally and socially reinforcing or mitigating their personal level of pain perception. Family, social and other ENVIRONMENT issues will further influence the different perceptions of pain.

 
 Keep tuned, I will share some more in the future.

We value each one of our employees and do our best to let them know we appreciate them.
This week we all met at Carrabba's restaurant and enjoyed a great meal with each other.
 

 
 
All the staff and providers came.
 
 
 
 We all share tips, websites, papers we've created and more to improve our patient care for each team member. We do not challenge each other, we challenge to better then our competition.

FEELING WELL / BEING HAPPY / ENJOYING LIFE / ....



 "If I only got rid of my pain"
 "If I only lost 20 pounds"
 If I only ..." I would feel so much better, I would be so much happier ...

The feeling of wellbeing is a combo. It requires several components to be in harmony and balanced. Patients in pain will always make their pain  or any other problem they pick on that day as being the reason for them not feeling well.

the 4 mayor components of well being are
BODY
MIND
SPIRIT
and EMOTIONS

these 4 elements co-exist all at the time in us. They must be IN-Sync  and doing well for us to feel well.

Central Florida Pain Management video - Migraines

While they've been known to knock a person out, migraines weren't thought to permanently affect the brain - until now.

A new study published last month in the journal Neurology suggests migraines may leave a mark.

Ride the Wave to Good Health - Expo

Our office recently attended a Health Expo at The Savannah Center here in The Villages.  The expo was put on by The Villages Human Resource Center for The Villages Employees. 
 
Not only did they offer free health care screenings for those who attended, but they also had raffle prizes, and trivia.  Not only was there a range of providers with informational booths, but also lots of entertainment.  With Hula dancer, music, and an ongoing movie it was fun for all the employees who came out, as well as ourselves!

Our number one goal is patient care, which includes providing patient education.  We loved being at this expo, and can't wait until our next one!
