Chronic Pain Vs. Acute Pain

managing painPain comes in all different flavors from shooting and throbbing to stabbing or aching. Only rare individuals will say that they actually enjoy it, though.

Sometimes pain only lasts for a short period of time, such as when you stove your finger. Other times it can last for a long time but will go away if it is treated right away.

Some people deal with a different type of pain that does not go away and is really hard to control. This is called chronic pain.

Mild pain is not too much of a problem for most people. It normally goes away on it’s own, or with the help of Over The Counter (OTC) drugs.

Moderate pain is not as easily controlled as mild pain and makes it hard to do things you would normally do. This type of pain normally requires a visit to the doctor and you might receive a prescription for a stronger pain medication than you can buy OTC.

Severe pain is very serious and can make it impossible to take part in your daily routine. If you are dealing with this then you should go to the doctor or emergency room right away to find out what is wrong.
