How can I manage my chronic pain?

Chronic pain is pain that lasts for an extended period of time, usually 12 weeks or more, despite medication or treatment. A study carried out by Ipsos on behalf of BBC news in March 2022 showed that 26% of adults living in the UK are suffering from chronic pain. Chronic pain is a condition in its own right, which often remains hidden and misunderstood. It can last for several years, and can impact daily life and overall quality of life. It’s also often stigmatized, in particular in young people and when the underlying cause can’t be identified. Many people confuse chronic pain with acute pain, which actually goes away once the body heals, like with a broken bone or torn muscle. What are some examples of chronic pain?
