Description
Why does PTSD so often coincide with a traumatic brain injury (TBI)?
Chronic pain, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), chronic regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and other complex pain syndromes can be present in people with TBIs and other injuries caused by trauma.

Conditions discussed in this live webinar will include:
- Chronic pain syndrome and painful chronic injuries, such as lower back injuries or disc herniations
- Chronic regional pain syndrome
- Central pain syndrome from miscommunication between the hypothalamus and the cortex (as well as concussion-like injuries to the spinal cord) with and without radiological evidence
- Idiopathic pain from miscommunication between the hypothalamus and the cortex
- Traumatic brain injuries that cause chronic obsession impairment, disability, and lack of self
Hickey will also cover:
