Health chat Wednesday: Open pain forum

Join us Wednesday for another live health chat with Dr. Paul Christo of Johns Hopkins.

We've tackled many pain topics on our live chats since December. Some have resonated more than others, so we decided to have an open forum on Oct. 19 at noon. Ask Christo about any pain condition, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, carpal tunnel syndrome, neuropathy and more.

Christo is director of the Multidisciplinary Pain Fellowship Training Program at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He also has a radio talk show Saturday nights on WBAL.

Can't make the chat? Send questions in advance to healthcalendar@baltsun.com and return here to read the transcript.
