Understanding Pain: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatments
Pain FAQ
What are the different types of pain?
Health professionals use different terms for different types of pain. Short-term pain is called Acute Pain. An example is a sprained ankle. Long-term is called Persistent or Chronic Pain. Back trouble or arthritis are examples. Pain that comes and goes is called Recurrent or Intermittent Pain. A tooth ache could be one.
Can a person in Pain really say how painful it is?
Only the person in pain can really say how painful something is. As a result, they are far more likely to listen to the patient and want to work together to improve the situation. This can still be quite a challenge. Patients must be able to explain their situation to the healthcare professional.
What is pain & how do you treat it?
Pain is a sign that something is wrong in your body. It may be caused by a wide variety of injuries, diseases, and functional pain syndromes. In general, the most effective way to treat pain is to address the underlying cause if it can be identified.
What is chronic pain?
Pain that continues for longer than three months is called chronic pain. Chronic pain can happen without a known cause and persist after an injury or known cause is resolved. It can affect a person’s mood, relationships, movement, and all aspects of daily life. Pain can make it harder to do necessary tasks, work, and enjoy activities.
