Suffering from chronic pain is daunting given the persistence of this complex condition that lasts 12 weeks or more despite healing after an original injury or illness. While the occurrence site may vary throughout the body producing mild to severe sensations lasting either continuously or intermittently; it can be distinct from typical acute pain which indicates possible damage as a warning sign.

Unfortunately, when left untreated, chronic pain escalates over time reducing daily activity levels and significantly decreasing mobility thereby lowering quality of life indices appreciably by impacting mental health parameters such as fatigue levels, sleep patterns amongst others causing depression and anxiety.

Multifaceted treatments including physical therapy interventions synchronized with medication management support help patients recover their strength while dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) and mindfulness approaches offer psychological support aimed at coping effectively with difficult emotions associated with suffering with chronic pain.
