Chronic Pain is pain that continues more than
three months, or a pain that continues a month or more beyond the usual
recovery period for an injury or illness, or a pain that continues for months
or years due to a chronic condition.
The International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) defines pain as “an unpleasant sensory and emotional

limb sensation, and other neurological conditions. Read more>>>>>>>>>>
