Hey, I’m Emma – welcome to my Lemon Pain Blog! I live in Yorkshire with my husband and two young boys and I love to teach English, write and be active. My aim here is to share the latest science on chronic pain and ideas to help people on their path to recovery.
This blog is for you if you are suffering from any form of chronic pain and you want to find out more about the science behind why you are in pain, how your mind plays a huge role in pain, some simple activities you can do to help your pain, and lots of resources to help you both mentally and physically.
Two years ago I was competing in triathlons, regularly training and enjoying long walks, when I was blindsided by excruciating knee pain, eventually diagnosed as patellofemoral pain syndrome. Since then I have visited numerous specialists and have read and listened to every piece of advice I can find.
The mental and physical toll chronic pain takes on your life is extreme, but all of the ideas in this blog are small steps towards living a life with less pain.
