Managing cancer pain audiobook
This audiobook explains the different ways that cancer pain can be managed.
Pain can be managed with painkillers and other treatments, including some complementary therapies. This information is for anyone affected by cancer who is experiencing pain. It may also be helpful for carers, family members and friends. We hope it helps you deal with some of the questions or feelings you may have. Recording the pain can help to see what makes it better or worse.
