SeePain Online Pain Management Resource
The SeePain is for people with SCI who want more information about pain to better understand it, want to learn more about how to manage pain, and want to talk with their healthcare providers who may not know well about SCI. The SeePain is based on published pain literature and many interviews with people living with SCI and chronic pain, their significant others, and healthcare providers specializing in SCI. The name SeePain was chosen because pain cannot be seen by others and many people with SCI have been told that they cannot have pain. The long-term goal of the SeePain is to empower people living with SCI and pain to make their pain manageable and reduce its negative impact on their quality of life.
