Learn to Excel in Life With Our Expert Providers

Chronic pain affects 20–25% of adults in the U.S.A. It can impact sleeping and can lead to avoiding social and physical activities. The pain may have been due to an injury or just “showed up.” Diagnostic testing may show physical abnormalities. There may be no predictable pattern as to when the pain is experienced. Symptoms can migrate across one’s body and result in feelings of exhaustion and inability to focus. Pain may disappear and reappear just when someone believes they are feeling better or when they are merely doing everyday things. The fear of re-injury or causing more pain can prompt the brain to project signals that induce the pain. As a result, many people limit their behaviors and interactions and begin to suffer even more stress, and stress is a key trigger for the brain to develop and maintain those heightened pain signals.
