Do You Have Chronic or Persisting Pain?

Do you have chronic or persisting pain?

The intensity of your chronic and persisting pain isn’t simply proportional to the degree of injury in the affected bone, nerve or soft tissue. Sure, the injury contributes, but pain (especially persisting pain) is much, much more complicated than that. Your health, beliefs, past experiences, and environment all amplify or reduce your experience of pain.

Confused? This locally produced video discusses pain physiology in less than 10 minutes and will help you understand what might reinforce elements of your persisting pain and what to do about it.
