This might be a little confusing but, do you know that pain is not necessarily bad? Pain can be lifesaving. You see, pain is that natural defense system of your body that triggers a physiological response that helps you serve as a protective function. This kind of pain is termed acute pain and typically has a sole cause and also a cure to it. It usually stops hurting once the body heals. However, we are mainly focused on the type of pain which can last from six months to a few years or may even be incurable. Yes, you are right! We are talking about chronic pain, which does not typically serve to protect our bodies from harm.
Chronic pain is debilitating for thousands of American lives. It affects people of all ages and both sexes and can take a toll on both emotional and physical health. Chronic pain can initially originate from an injury or condition and then persist for months and even longer after its cause is gone. Another characteristic of chronic pain is that it is very inconsistent and hard to predict. One day, you might feel you can move freely and just might feel a little discomfort, while some other day, you may even be bedridden. Chronic pain can be so unpredictable that even if two people have the same cause of pain, they can experience chronic pain in different ways. In severe cases, it can even limit a person’s ability to move their joints through a full range of motion. Chronic pain can hinder a person’s strength and stamina and can disturb the normal activities of daily living. Further, it can lead to other health issues like sleep disturbances and mood changes. It is commonly seen that people who suffer from chronic pain often experience feelings of isolation and this behaviour can further lead to depression and anxiety. The pain can limit them from participating in social activities or even doing things which once they enjoyed.
