Patient was instructed regarding pain migration technique for pain management as follows:
- Pain migration is a technique of pain management, in which you train the mind to move the pain, from the site of pain to a non-painful site of your body.
- Mentally moving the pain from the source to a non-painful body site, helps relatively easier coping with pain.
- After you gain control with the technique of pain migration, try migrating pain in the non-painful body site, out of your body and into the environment around.
- This stepwise mindful migration of pain and discomfort from the source of pain into outside environment helps associating your mind with diminished pain intensity.
- Removing the annoying sensation of pain and associated discomfort out of your body offers relaxation with diminished pain intensity and helps with pain management.
