In _It Doesn’t Have to Hurt_, Sanjay Gupta makes the empowering argument that there are effective options for relief that you can start practicing today to greatly reduce your chances of


suffering pain tomorrow. Gupta shows how pain carries an enormous amount of physical, social, and emotional baggage, which is, in part, why it has been so hard to treat, and too often


ignored. It can also present in infinite ways. Yet both patients and practitioners labor under the mistaken idea that most pain problems can be fixed with a drug or procedure. It turns out


we have tremendous agency in choosing how we’ll respond. The brain “creates” pain, but it also has the capacity to reduce or even eliminate it. There is more evidence than ever about the


benefits of sleep, diet and nutrition, mindfulness-based pain management (MBPM), myofascial and other hands-on treatments, as well as yoga, specialized psychotherapies, and even social


“prescriptions”—prompting more doctors than ever to focus on these solutions. Gupta runs the gamut of conventional and complementary approaches, including the technique known as Mobilization


Exercise Analgesia Treatment, foam rolling, acupuncture, trigger point injections, and vital “prehabilitation” before any operation. He helps makes sense of all those over-the-counter


pills, patches, and pain products, as well as drugs advertised on television or prescribed by your doctors. He addresses pain treatments using psychedelics, supplements, and CBD. And he


highlights insights from some of the nation’s leading pain scientists and specialists, plus stories of challenge and triumph over pain by those with lived experience. With expert guidance


and a wealth of science-backed strategies, _It Doesn’t Have to Hurt_ is your ultimate resource for reclaiming your life from chronic pain and unlocking a future of lasting relief—starting


today. ABOUT THE AUTHOR DR. SANJAY GUPTA is CNN’s Emmy Award–winning chief medical correspondent and the host of the acclaimed podcast Chasing Life (formerly Coronavirus: Fact vs. Fiction),
