Chronic pain is defined as persistent pain that lasts for more than three months, often continuing even after the initial injury or underlying condition has healed. It can arise from various causes, including:

• Psychological Factors: Stress, anxiety, and depression can exacerbate the experience of chronic pain, creating a complex interplay between mind and body.
• Injuries: Past injuries that have not fully healed can lead to ongoing pain.
• Medical Conditions: Conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, or neuropathy can contribute to chronic pain.
• Nerve Damage: Damage to the nervous system can result in neuropathic pain, characterized by sensations like tingling, burning, or shooting pain.

Chronic pain symptoms can vary widely and may include:

• Emotional Distress: Feelings of frustration, anxiety, or depression are common among those living with chronic pain.
• Persistent Pain: Ongoing discomfort that can range from mild to severe.
• Fluctuating Pain Levels: Pain may intensify or diminish at different times or with various activities.
• Fatigue: Chronic pain can lead to exhaustion and reduced energy levels.
• Sleep Disturbances: Difficulty sleeping due to pain can further exacerbate feelings of fatigue and distress.
