Chronic pain is defined as pain that lasts for more than three months, or beyond the expected healing time for an injury or illness. Unlike acute pain, which normally subsides as the body recovers from the illness or injury causing the pain, chronic pain persists long after the injury has healed and can even become more intense over time.

Many types of chronic pain can significantly impact an individual’s daily life, leading to significant psychical and psychological anguish. Some common examples of chronic pain include migraines, chronic back pain, arthritis pain, cancer pain, fibromyalgia, phantom limb pain, chronic regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and neuropathic pain.
