Managing Your Child's Chronic Pain
2015
Overview
Pain is a frequent experience for children of all ages. Unfortunately, one in four children and adolescents suffers from some form of pain that doesn’t resolve quickly and becomes a chronic or persistent problem. There are very few specialized services available to provide evaluation and treatment to children with chronic pain. This means that many families are not able to get the help they need. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment that has been used for over 30 years for children with chronic pain. Managing Your Child’s Chronic Pain provides instruction in psychological treatment strategies for parents to use at home to help their child and family to better cope with chronic pain. The book provides instruction in several cognitive and behavioral skills, including relaxation strategies, reward systems, supporting physical activity and healthy lifestyle habits, strategies to improve sleep, supporting school and social relationships, and problem-solving and positive thinking skills. Parents are provided with suggestions for homework assignments and practice opportunities to encourage rapid learning of each skill. A unique feature of the book is that each chapter uses stories, quotes, and vignettes of children with chronic pain and their families based on real-life examples. The goal of this book is to provide parents with strategies that will help their children manage pain and participate more fully in their daily lives.
