Chronic Pain
Almost everyone has experienced some form of pain before - whether it's
a niggling headache after a long day at work or the pain of a broken bone. For
the majority of us, this pain is only temporary and disappears once the cause
has been eliminated. For some people however, pain is something they have to
live with every day.
Chronic pain relates to any type of pain that lasts for longer than
three to six months. Another definition states that chronic pain is simply pain
that extends beyond the expected period of healing.
There are many different causes of chronic pain, ranging from conditions
such as fibromyalgia to chronic headaches. Whatever the reason is, suffering
from chronic pain can be devastating - both physically and emotionally.
Those suffering from chronic pain may experience other symptoms as well
as the pain, including:
1. fatigue
2. weakened immune system
3. difficulty sleeping
4. mood changes.
Looking after your psychological well-being can
be especially important when you are experiencing physical problems.
Maintaining a positive mindset and lowering stress levels can improve your
quality of life and can even help to reduce your pain.
