What is chronic pain? Chronic pain is a complex and often misunderstood condition that persists beyond the expected time of tissue healing. This webinar delves into the nature of chronic pain, explores approaches to its management, and offers valuable insights for healthcare professionals, claims managers, and anyone involved in supporting individuals with chronic pain conditions.
Topics include:
Understanding chronic pain: Its persistence beyond tissue healing and the significant role of psychosocial factors in pain experience, expression, and alleviation
How pain-related disabilities have become the most expensive non-malignant health problems affecting the working-age population
Exploring why, in the management of pain, the solution often becomes part of the problem
