What is Chronic Pain?

Every Pain that grows beyond a 6-month period is chronic pain.

Chronic pain problems have two categories:

  • pain that is due to an identifiable generator (an injury, for instance)
  • pain that does not have an identifiable generator (pain which occurs after an injury has healed, for example)

What Causes Chronic Pain?
