Chronic pain, also known as persistent pain, refers to pain that lasts for more than 3 months and is felt on most days of the week. It can be either widespread or confined to a specific area of the body. And may occur intermittently or be present constantly.
When pain becomes chronic, it can be considered more as a “disease” rather than a helpful survival mechanism. This is in contrast to acute (short-term) pain.
