Pain is a very common condition. The occurrence of pain rises as people get older, and women are more likely to experience pain than men.
There are two main types of pain.
- Acute pain - a normal response to an injury. It starts suddenly and is usually short-lived
- Chronic pain - continues beyond the time expected for healing. It generally lasts for longer than three months.
Studies suggest that a person's emotional wellbeing can impact the experience of pain. Understanding the cause and learning effective ways to cope with your pain can improve your quality of life.
Key pain management strategies include:
- pain-relieving medicines
- physical therapies (such as heat or cold packs, massage, hydrotherapy, and exercise)
- psychological therapies (such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, relaxation techniques, and meditation)
- mind and body techniques (such as acupuncture)
- occupational therapy
- community support groups.
