Chronic Pain Takes A Toll
If your pain is becoming chronic, you may notice:
- Constant restriction in your movement & general day-to-day tasks
- Poor sleep
- Lack of concentration
- Social isolation
If left untreated, these issues could have a flow on effect into other aspects of your life, including: relationships, work, sex, fitness, mental health, quality of living, and recreation.
