Do You Have Chronic Pain?
Chronic Pain is pain that persists longer than the temporal course of natural healing, associated with a particular type of injury or disease process. It is rare to completely achieve absolute and sustained relief of pain. Thus, the clinical goal is pain management. The importance of comprehensive pain programs in the management of chronic pain is widely recognized.
