Pain

More than a third of the population live with persistent "chronic" pain due to a fault or malfunction in the body's pain system. It is a long term condition and cannot be ‘fixed or cured’. 

Traditional medical treatments such as pain medicines are now recognised as having only limited value (and can make pain worse...) Instead, a different way of living with persistent pain is growing in influence. It’s called a ‘self management’ approach. Look at these resources below to get you started!
