Chronic Pain Management Protocols

📌 한 줄 통찰

"매 pain = 매 brain interpretation". 매 tissue 의 heal 후 도 매 brain 의 alarm system 의 stuck. 매 modern: 매 biopsychosocial + 매 neuroplasticity rewire. 매 opioid 의 trap 의 alternative.

📖 핵심

매 mechanism

Acute → Chronic transition

• 매 3 month 이상 의 pain.
• 매 tissue heal 후 도 의 persist.
• 매 nervous system 의 sensitize.

Central Sensitization

• 매 spinal cord 의 hyperexcitable.
• 매 light touch 의 매 severe pain.
• 매 NMDA receptor 의 upregulate.

Cortical reorganization

• 매 somatosensory cortex 의 remap.
• 매 phantom limb pain 의 example.

Biopsychosocial model (Engel 1977)

• Bio: tissue / neural.
• Psycho: anxiety / depression / catastrophizing.
• Social: support / context / culture.

→ 매 3 의 mutually reinforce.

매 modern protocol

1. Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE)

• 매 patient 의 pain 의 understand.
• 매 fear-avoidance 의 reduce.
• 매 Lorimer Moseley 의 pioneer.

2. Graded Motor Imagery (GMI)

• 매 stage 1: laterality recognition.
• 매 stage 2: 매 imagined movement.
• 매 stage 3: 매 mirror therapy.
• 매 phantom limb / CRPS 의 effective.

3. Graded exercise / exposure

• 매 baseline 의 set.
• 매 매 week 의 small ↑.
• 매 fear-avoidance 의 break.

4. CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)

• 매 catastrophizing 의 reframe.
• 매 acceptance.
• 매 ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy).

5. Mindfulness / MBSR

• 매 Jon Kabat-Zinn.
• 매 attention 의 shift.
• 매 default mode network 의 modulate.

6. Movement-based

• 매 Tai Chi, 매 Qi Gong, 매 Yoga.
• 매 systematic review 의 evidence.

7. Multimodal (gold standard)

• 매 PT + 매 psychology + 매 medical.
• 매 specialist team.

매 medication (last resort / adjunct)

• NSAIDs: 매 acute / inflammatory.
• Acetaminophen: 매 mild.
• Anticonvulsants (gabapentin, pregabalin): 매 neuropathic.
• SNRI (duloxetine): 매 fibromyalgia.
• Topical (lidocaine, capsaicin).
• Opioids: 매 last resort, 매 short-term.

→ 매 CDC 의 opioid crisis 의 lesson.

매 biological factor

• BDNF: 매 neuroplasticity.
• Inflammation: 매 IL-6, TNF-α.
• Sleep deprivation: 매 pain ↑.
• Stress / cortisol: 매 sensitization.
• Microbiome: 매 emerging research.

매 cognitive worker 의 specific

• Sedentary pain: 매 neck / back.
• Repetitive strain: 매 RSI / carpal tunnel.
• Eye strain: 매 20-20-20 rule.
• Movement break: 매 Pomodoro.
• Posture / ergonomics.

매 anti-pattern

• 매 "매 push through pain".
• 매 stay in bed 만.
• 매 opioid 의 long-term.
• 매 single-cause search.
• 매 "매 imaging 의 verdict 의 trust".
• 매 "매 mind 만" 의 dismiss (real biology).

💻 패턴 (응용 — productivity / wellness)

Pain monitoring (cognitive worker)

class PainLog:
    def __init__(self):
        self.entries = []
    
    def log(self, severity, location, activity, time_of_day):
        self.entries.append({
            'severity': severity,  # 0-10
            'location': location,
            'activity': activity,
            'time': time_of_day,
        })
    
    def trend(self, days=30):
        recent = self.entries[-days*3:]  # 매 ~3 entries / day
        return {
            'avg_severity': np.mean([e['severity'] for e in recent]),
            'common_locations': collections.Counter(e['location'] for e in recent).most_common(3),
            'trigger_activities': collections.Counter(e['activity'] for e in recent if e['severity'] >= 6).most_common(3),
        }

Pomodoro + movement break

def deep_work_with_break():
    return [
        ('25 min', 'deep work — sit'),
        ('5 min', 'walk + stretch + 20-20-20 (look 20ft for 20 sec)'),
        ('25 min', 'deep work — stand desk'),
        ('5 min', 'movement break — neck rotations + wall press'),
        ('25 min', 'deep work'),
        ('15 min', 'long break — outside walk'),
    ]

Graded exposure (return to activity)

def grade_exposure(activity, baseline_min, weeks=12):
    """매 baseline (no flare) 의 60-80% 의 start, 매 매주 10% ↑."""
    schedule = []
    current = baseline_min * 0.7
    for week in range(weeks):
        schedule.append({
            'week': week + 1,
            'activity': activity,
            'duration_min': round(current),
            'note': 'stop if pain >= 6/10 for >24h',
        })
        current *= 1.1
    return schedule

Mindfulness session

def mbsr_session(duration_min=20):
    return [
        ('1 min', 'Settle — feel chair, feet, hands.'),
        ('3 min', 'Breath awareness — natural rhythm.'),
        ('5 min', 'Body scan — toes → head, neutral observation.'),
        ('5 min', 'Pain area — turn TOWARD with curiosity, not resistance.'),
        ('3 min', 'Whole body awareness.'),
        ('3 min', 'Open awareness — sounds, thoughts as visitors.'),
    ]

Cognitive reframing (CBT)

def reframe_catastrophic_thought(thought):
    """매 user-side reframing template."""
    return {
        'original': thought,
        'evidence_for': [],
        'evidence_against': [],
        'alternative_thought': '...',
        'severity_now (0-10)': 0,
    }

# 매 example
thought = "이 통증은 영원할 거야, 나는 망했어"
reframed = {
    'original': thought,
    'evidence_for': ['지금 매우 아프다'],
    'evidence_against': ['과거 이런 통증이 결국 가라앉은 적 있다',
                          '의사는 신경적 과민이지 조직 손상이 아니라고 했다',
                          '운동 후 가끔 좋아진다'],
    'alternative': "지금 매우 불편하지만 일시적이고, 내가 할 수 있는 것이 있다.",
    'severity_now': 5,  # 매 down from 8
}

Sleep hygiene (pain modulator)

def pain_sleep_protocol():
    return {
        'consistent_bedtime': '23:00',
        'wake_time': '07:00',
        'wind_down_60min_before': True,
        'no_screen_60min_before': True,
        'cool_room': '18-20 °C',
        'caffeine_cutoff': '14:00',
        'alcohol_limit': '1 drink, not within 3h of bed',
        'magnesium_glycinate': '300-400 mg before bed',
    }

🤔 결정 기준

상황	Approach
Acute < 3 mo	RICE + NSAID + early movement
Subacute	Graded exposure + PT
Chronic (3+ mo)	Multimodal (PNE + PT + CBT + meditation)
Phantom limb	GMI + mirror therapy
Fibromyalgia	SNRI + tai chi + CBT
Neuropathic	Anticonvulsant + topical
Cognitive worker	Movement break + posture + sleep

기본값: 매 multidisciplinary + 매 active engagement (medication 만 X). 매 항상 의 의사 consult.

❌ 안티패턴

• Push-through-pain culture: 매 sensitization 의 worsen.
• Bed rest only: 매 deconditioning.
• Opioid long-term: 매 dependence + 매 hyperalgesia.
• Single-cause search: 매 imaging의 over-rely.
• "Mind only" 의 dismiss: 매 real biology.
• Push-then-crash cycle: 매 graded 의 ignore.
• No sleep / stress mgmt: 매 pain modulator 의 ignore.
