Dr. Vijay Vad

In Stop Pain: Inflamation Relief for an Active Life, Vijay Vad, M.D. addresses the chronic pain suffered by an estimated 50 million people.  Now, with advances in the understanding of pain, relief is possible with self-care options that reduce dependence on narcotics or medical procedures. His analysis of conventional and complementary options—including prescription medications and surgical intervention to physical therapy, acupuncture, and breathing exercises—offer a pathway to relief.  Vad is a sports-medicine specialist at the Hospital for Special Surgery and a professor at Weill Medical College of Cornell University. He is the author of Back Rx and Arthritis Rx.
