Pain Clinic

What is pain?

In general, the word “pain” refers to unpleasant bodily sensations. It results from the neurological system being activated.

Pain can be inconvenient or incapacitating. It could hurt like a slow ache or a quick stab. It could also be characterized as sore, burning, stinging, throbbing, or pinching.

Pain might be constant, come on and off regularly, or only happen in specific situations. It could be acute, appearing out of the blue and going away quickly. Alternatively, it could be chronic, characterized by persistent feelings that persist or recur for months or years.

Your body may experience localized pain that just affects one area. Alternatively, it could be more widespread, like flu-related aches all over the body.

Different people have different reactions to pain. While some people have a low threshold for pain, others have a high one. Pain is very personal.

Pain alerts us to problems and provides clues as to why they occur. Certain types of pain are easily diagnosed and treated at home. Some forms of pain are indicators of more significant medical issues that need to be treated by a physician.
