NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this talk for medical advice. This talk only represents the speaker's own views and understanding of pain, which may be alienating to some viewers. We've flagged this talk because it falls outside the content guidelines TED gives TEDx organizers. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/t... Learning not to run away from discomfort might be the key to living a happy life and connecting with others. Dr. Stonington shares stories from patients with chronic pain in Thailand and the U.S. to teach us all to cope with the difficult realities of life. Is that the kind of length of title that you had in mind? Dr. Scott Stonington is an Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Michigan and a practicing internal medicine physician at Michigan Medicine. He completed his residency in Thailand, where he was inspired to study end-of-life care and pain management. Dr. Stonington’s research focuses on how to best treat chronic pain while reducing the use of opioids. His talk explains the differences between pain and suffering, and how those nuances can be employed to challenge prevailing Western thought on pain management and obtain striking medical results. Dr. Stonington holds a B.S. from Stanford University, Ph.D. in Medical Anthropology from UC Berkeley, and M.D. from UC San Francisco. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
