🩺 Symptoms But No Cause? - with Clinical Psychologist Dr Hannah Sugarman
🩺 Symptoms But No Cause?
In this video, you can discover why persistent physical symptoms without a clear medical explanation are more common than many people realise. This video explores the reality that between 26% and 40% of primary care patients report ongoing symptoms — from pain and headaches to neurological difficulties and irritable bowel syndrome — without an identifiable cause. This video can help viewers understand the emotional toll of feeling misunderstood or dismissed, and reassure them that they are not alone. While navigating support can feel complex, there are psychological approaches that can improve quality of life alongside ongoing symptoms.
