Health Cafe where your Pet has a Voice.
7
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:43.840
And here's your host, Bill the Pet Health Guru, and
8
00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:46.439
welcome here to the Pet Health Cafe, the show where
9
00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:49.200
your Pet has a Voice. This is Bill the Pet
10
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:53.560
Health Guru, and got an interesting topic again for you tonight,
11
00:00:53.679 --> 00:00:57.719
something a little bit different than what we've been looking at. Again,
12
00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:01.399
these podcasts are very, very important to those of you
13
00:01:01.479 --> 00:01:03.880
out there that own pets and are looking for good
14
00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:07.000
health for both them and yourself, and any way that
15
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.920
we can't help get this message out would be greatly appreciated.
16
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:17.359
You know, if you're on social media, on YouTube, any
17
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:20.640
of the platforms that we're on, if you would go
18
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:25.719
ahead and like it, share it, and subscribe so you
19
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:29.359
don't miss a single episode, that would be fantastic. The
20
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:34.079
chat room is open for your questions. I always enjoy
21
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.239
taking them and it doesn't give me an idea too
22
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:41.359
as to who is listening or watching tonight. It always
23
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:48.079
helps my spirits when I see friendly names and comments
24
00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:53.760
out there. So with that being said, tonight, I want
25
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:56.159
to talk a little bit about something that we hear
26
00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:03.719
a lot of comments. It's about, but not necessarily explanations,
27
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:11.960
definitions or ways that we can mitigate these conditions. And
28
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:21.879
that condition is pain. Now, I looked up the definitions
29
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:27.319
on several different platforms of what pain really is, and
30
00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:30.120
of course I can guarantee you we all have our
31
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:39.800
own thoughts perceptions as to what really pain is. I
32
00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:44.919
consider myself to have a fairly pain free life. However,
33
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:47.879
when I read the descriptions of what is being said
34
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:59.240
and the media, I'm in a terrible painful situation, and
35
00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:03.719
yet I don't think so because of my perception in
36
00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:07.280
the way I view it. The actual definition is a
37
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:19.039
physical suffering or discomfort from illness or injury, unpleasant body sensations,
38
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:34.319
physical discomfort, emotional discomfort, or any and all of the above. Now,
39
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:40.120
many of us think of pain, including myself, as to
40
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:48.800
that kind of deep stabbing type sensation. Not to generalize,
41
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:57.800
just I'm slow getting up, can't quite maneuver some of
42
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:02.400
the things that I used to those are discomforts, but
43
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:06.759
I don't consider that to be pain. And the reason
44
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:10.560
that this is so important as we're dealing we're dealing
45
00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:17.600
with our pets, especially because they do not speak a
46
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:24.560
common language with us that we all always hear when
47
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:28.839
there's an issue of health, the pain and suffering. We
48
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:36.240
do not want our animals to suffer through pain. Now,
49
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:41.800
given the definition that emotional distress, I want to address
50
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:48.920
that first. Let's say that you have your household of
51
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:55.759
free family members, your pets, and they all seem to
52
00:04:55.759 --> 00:05:02.240
get along, everything's going along smoothly, and you bring another
53
00:05:02.360 --> 00:05:09.279
animal into the situation, another dog, another cat, a kit
54
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:17.839
and a puppy. It changes the whole family dynamic when
55
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:26.519
you do that. Wouldn't that by definition be painful, even
56
00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:30.079
if it seems to be a good thing, because there
57
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:35.800
is going to be a certain amount of emotional distress.
58
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:42.879
If a friend or a family happens to move in,
59
00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:49.920
wouldn't that be causing the same thing. And again, why
60
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:54.879
this particular part of it is important. Is this something
61
00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:57.480
in which we would have to look at taking some
62
00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:05.040
sort of pain relief for some pain management, whether it
63
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:15.720
be chemical, physical, emotional, psychological, or is this just a
64
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:19.319
part of life? Is this part of living that we
65
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:23.319
deal with on a day to day basis, Because when
66
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:27.639
you really stop and think about it, almost every encounter
67
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:32.800
that you could possibly have with your pet and in
68
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:38.000
your life as well, will have some sort of amount
69
00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:47.560
of an emotional distress attached to it, and of course
70
00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:51.439
that's going to affect their behavior. Now, if we look
71
00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:58.160
on the physical part of it, in various injuries, various illnesses,
72
00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:04.680
that's a different type of pain, And does that need
73
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:11.639
to be addressed differently than that emotional distress, and is
74
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:16.000
it combined with it in such a way that we
75
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:20.199
need to attack it now? It was interesting that in
76
00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:24.759
most of the definitions that I read and I looked
77
00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:29.199
at before doing the show and doing my research, very
78
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:36.279
few of them mentioned a symptom that I believe is
79
00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:43.920
more to what we're trying to address here tonight, and
80
00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:52.120
that symptom is inflammation. Now, when I look at pain,
81
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:55.800
I'm normally looking at an inflammatory state. That's what's causing
82
00:07:55.839 --> 00:08:03.560
the pain that discomforts. So why aren't they tied together
83
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:07.439
in a medical sense most of the time. That's an
84
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:14.240
interesting question that hopefully we can work our way through here.
85
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:25.079
So if we're looking at a burn, a cut, a scrape,
86
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:33.879
a bite, there's an immediate sensation that we feel, and
87
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:38.879
that normally is some sort of discomfort, which according to definition,
88
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:48.279
that would be pain. That being said, that physical pain
89
00:08:49.440 --> 00:08:57.720
can be treated almost immediately, and that pain can dissipate
90
00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:04.399
very quickly. I've gotten over the years many many of
91
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:08.679
our clients that when I talk about different treatments, natural
92
00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:19.879
treatments for various painful events, that relief can be within moments.
93
00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:25.879
Probably the best one is the use of raw honey
94
00:09:25.960 --> 00:09:33.480
or manuka honey. Painful events like burns or cuts, your
95
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:44.120
scrapes or even insect bites. The properties of that raw
96
00:09:44.159 --> 00:09:50.960
honey and that manuka honey take away that physical sensation
97
00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:56.840
of pain. But according to definition, is that pain really
98
00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:02.480
gone or do you have the emotional particles along with them? Yes,
99
00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:08.200
it feels a lot better. That's a good thing. We
100
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:10.720
can do the same thing with our dogs and cats
101
00:10:10.759 --> 00:10:13.399
when they get cuts and scrapes and or burns, even
102
00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:19.720
yes they do get burns. When we have either clumsy
103
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:23.679
animals or clumsy owners that you know you spill something,
104
00:10:25.840 --> 00:10:28.639
you can give them something that's too hot to eat.
105
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:31.360
If you're cooking food, which you really shouldn't be doing anyway.
106
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:37.320
You should be feeding raw but you're taking them out
107
00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:40.960
on the pavement in the middle of summer in Florida,
108
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:45.360
and that blacktop, that concrete is one hundred and twenty degrees.
109
00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:51.559
These should cause painful situations, and something as simple as
110
00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:58.519
raw honey it can be a game breaker. Of course,
111
00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:00.559
this is one of the items to them people don't
112
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:07.480
want to use because it's sticky and considered messy. Well,
113
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:10.559
I think you'd rather have a little bit of a
114
00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:20.600
mess then have that physical trauma type pain that my
115
00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:26.960
animal might be experiencing. I would rather go away than
116
00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:30.000
them to have to deal with it. And in many
117
00:11:30.080 --> 00:11:32.320
cases I'll clean up their own mess anyway with something
118
00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:34.799
like honey because it tastes good to them and they
119
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:41.519
actually self heal that way. But along with that, you
120
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:47.240
do get the inflammation part of it, because you do
121
00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:50.279
get the swilling see economy. Yeah, it's whatever, pain is
122
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:54.320
really what you want it to be. Animals are stronger
123
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:56.679
than we are. They don't always show it yet, they're
124
00:11:56.679 --> 00:12:00.799
not emotional, and they also I want to let us know,
125
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:06.960
let us sound that's a good, good comment there. Our
126
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:09.759
animals don't show pain because in nature, if you show pain,
127
00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:16.279
that's showing suffering. Suffering means not healthy. Not healthy means
128
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:23.120
I'm somebody's lunch or dinner or breakfast. So you don't
129
00:12:23.159 --> 00:12:28.919
want to put yourself in that position in nature of
130
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.519
being what we would consider in the human population probably
131
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:33.639
a cry baby. You know, oh my god, I fell,
132
00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:36.480
I heard my knee, I've hurt my hand, I hurt
133
00:12:36.519 --> 00:12:43.279
my elbow. Sometimes there are physical restrictions that go along
134
00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:46.480
with that. I know I went through it several months
135
00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:51.679
ago with a pinch nerve. Because many of these pain problems,
136
00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:57.919
in fact, probably all pain problems, have a neuro connection.
137
00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:05.200
It's a nervous system that is conducting us, sending that
138
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:11.799
brain that message to the brain to do something. Put
139
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:18.080
your hand in the fire, the hand feels burned, feels pain,
140
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:21.639
Send the message to your brain. Your brain sends a
141
00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:23.919
message back to your hand, get out of there as
142
00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:27.879
quickly as possible. So it's a fight or flight issue
143
00:13:27.879 --> 00:13:34.200
as well. Where I'm leading with all of this is
144
00:13:34.279 --> 00:13:46.120
where does pain management in animals begin. We see in
145
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:53.159
the medical trade every little issue that has to be
146
00:13:53.240 --> 00:14:03.039
taken every procedure. We're always prescribing pain management drug we
147
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:08.080
have a headache, we take many people will take things
148
00:14:08.120 --> 00:14:19.200
like tylnholm aspirin, even stronger things codeine, narcotics because they're
149
00:14:19.200 --> 00:14:23.159
in pain. But the one thing that hasn't done is
150
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:27.519
address the problem. How did that pain begin and why
151
00:14:27.639 --> 00:14:34.639
is it still there? We have to start looking at
152
00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:44.480
this whole aspect of pain management because if we take
153
00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:56.799
pain killers, if you will, drugs pharmaceuticals that mask that sensation,
154
00:14:57.000 --> 00:15:02.559
that physical or emotional sensation that we call pain, no
155
00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:09.720
healing can occur. No healing occurs. It's going to become chronic.
156
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:18.159
And we have to begin to take a look at
157
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:21.720
pain from a healing standpoint. What do we need to
158
00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:24.360
do to heal the body so that we do not
159
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:30.639
have this physical or emotional sensation. And there's a lot
160
00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:38.039
of different things that can go on with that. And okay,
161
00:15:38.120 --> 00:15:42.039
see a question here, what about internal pain for humans animals?
162
00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:42.480
Well?
163
00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:45.240
I can only address that with humans obviously because they
164
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:51.080
can tell me. But how can you detect internal pain
165
00:15:51.639 --> 00:15:58.559
in animals? Crying, the way they move, the way they
166
00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:11.919
care themselves. Inflammation, you know, fever in certain areas can
167
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:19.320
be an indicator, but it's often very very inaccurate, and
168
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:21.519
if you're looking at the way they're moving, the way
169
00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:26.320
they're acting, those are not always when we look at
170
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.039
those pain centers, those aren't always the centers where that
171
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:35.519
pain actually is, because, as I said, there's a neurological
172
00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:43.039
aspect to it, and you could be subjected to a
173
00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:45.480
lot of pain that has nothing to do with the
174
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:50.720
area that you're thinking now. I experienced, and this is
175
00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:52.600
why I wanted to bring this up. I went through
176
00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:56.000
a period a few months ago where all of a
177
00:16:56.039 --> 00:16:59.320
sudden I could not move my arm or my right
178
00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:06.160
hand because of that sharp, shooting, stabbing type pain that
179
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:11.599
I was experiencing. What was the cause in my case,
180
00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:17.400
it happened to be a pinch nerve caused by a
181
00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:25.319
very very tiny bone spur on one of my vertebrae.
182
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:30.680
And I happened to have to do a task that
183
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:34.720
day which required a long distance drive with no AC
184
00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:37.279
in my truck. So I had the windows open in
185
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:43.279
my truck, primarily on the passenger side, so that I
186
00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:46.519
could hear at least something, you know, without the wind
187
00:17:46.519 --> 00:17:50.519
blowing in my ear on the driver's side, so I
188
00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:56.799
was leaning on my console, on my arm, on my elbow.
189
00:17:58.519 --> 00:18:03.640
I guess what happened to that nerve. It got pinched
190
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:12.920
because it's pulling on it on that vertebrate, and it
191
00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:16.480
happened to get in a way, and now I have
192
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:25.400
what's considered extreme pain. Obviously, most of you that watch
193
00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:29.480
the show know that I don't believe in going to
194
00:18:29.480 --> 00:18:32.440
the doctors for little things. I'm not that type of
195
00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:36.720
a person. Essentially, I've not been to an MD in
196
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:41.160
over thirty five years. However, I know that I needed
197
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:45.440
something to correct it. And my correction always looks at
198
00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:50.759
look at the structure. First fix the structure, and you
199
00:18:50.880 --> 00:18:54.680
fix the problem. So I called up one of our clients,
200
00:18:55.640 --> 00:19:00.680
happens to be a chiropractor, a functional chiropractor, and I said,
201
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:03.720
you know my history. I don't go to doctors, And jokingly,
202
00:19:03.839 --> 00:19:07.279
I said, you know that chiropractors really aren't doctors, which
203
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:09.920
is kind of what goes around in the medical circles anyway,
204
00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:14.319
and he laughed, and I said, to what I had,
205
00:19:14.319 --> 00:19:17.960
and I went in and the next ray confirmed it
206
00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:26.359
a little bit of the manipulation to move that nerve
207
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:29.519
around a little bit so it wouldn't be so pain
208
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:34.680
so it would be creating that pain. However, because of
209
00:19:34.720 --> 00:19:41.880
the inflammation on that nerve and in that area, the
210
00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:46.039
pain didn't just immediately go away. It lingered for a while.
211
00:19:46.519 --> 00:19:49.200
And I'm going to tell you after this quick break
212
00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:53.599
how I resolve that non medically. We'll be right back.
