No one wants to be in pain; but pain is not always a bad thing. Pain is the body signaling you to pay attention. It might be muscle soreness after a great workout.

Dr. Dan and Angela discuss pain as a helpful sensory input in the body, how to tell the difference between anticipated pain from muscle use and pain from an injury, and when to stop or keep going with your activities. Pain can be a great guide for improving your health if you’re willing to listen to it!
