Having Pain vs. Living In Pain
Everyone experiences pain at some time in their life. Experiencing pain once in a while is normal, and simply is a part of being a human; having unexpected things happen to you along the way. However, living with constant or persistent pain is not normal. Feeling pain is necessary for survival; it allows your body to know when something’s wrong or what to avoid. Feeling persistent, chronic pain is not something you should deal with on a daily basis; sometimes it’s up to you to take control of your health by investigating it further.
If you’ve ever had questions such as: “Why does my body feel this way,” “Is it supposed to feel like this,” or “How does pain even work,” then this read will be extremely beneficial for you! Take the first step towards bettering your health by educating yourself, understanding pain and how it works within your own body.
Why Try Understanding Pain?
Pain is a complex subject, consisting of both physical discomfort as well as a mental toll; getting in the way of your life and relationships. Educating yourself and understanding pain to a higher extent can allow you to fight back, take better control of your health and feel better every day. This short booklet of 54 pages provides a patient-friendly, comprehensive explanation of pain, how your brain receives and interprets it, and why it plays an important part in your body and health.
For those with over-sensitive nervous systems, pain may seem overly persistent, sometimes even disruptive to daily activities. Understanding pain can allow you to put your mind at ease, by knowing how and why your body reacts the way it does. You aren’t alone in this experience, and you don’t have to be in the dark about your own body!
