Chronic pain is pain that lasts longer than three months or continues after an injury has healed. Unlike short-term pain, it no longer serves a protective purpose and can become a long-term health condition. The pain may be constant or intermittent, ranging from mild discomfort to severe pain that limits daily activities. Over time, chronic pain can interfere with sleep, mood, concentration, work performance, and overall quality of life.
