Chronic Pain
Chronic pain is a persistent and prolonged discomfort that can affect various parts of the body, lasting for weeks, months, or even years. It is not a temporary or acute pain but an ongoing condition with various underlying causes, often resulting in a significant impact on a person’s daily life and well-being.
Symptoms
Common symptoms of chronic pain include ongoing and recurring pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, reduced mobility, mood changes such as irritability or anxiety, muscle stiffness, headaches, changes in appetite, numbness or tingling sensations, weakness, and a reduced quality of life. It’s important to note that symptoms can vary from person to person and may be influenced by the underlying cause of the chronic pain condition.
