Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between acute pain and chronic pain?

 

Acute pain is pain of a short, limited duration, usually the result of an injury, surgery or medical illness. Acute pain often goes away with the healing process.

 

Chronic pain continues for longer periods of time, sometimes even long time after the healing of the original injury is expected to have occurred. Chronic pain is also associated with frustration, depression and anxiety.

 

Treatments for acute and chronic pain are often quite different.
