Chronic vs. acute pain
Pain manifests in two primary forms: acute and chronic. Acute pain, typically lasting less than a week or two, can arise from injury, inflammation, tissue damage, illness, or recent surgery. However, chronic pain persists for months or years, with more than one in five U.S. adults affected by it, as revealed by a CDC survey in 2021.
An estimated 51.6 million adults (20.9%) experienced chronic pain lasting over three months, and 17.1 million (6.9%) suffered from high-impact chronic pain, severely restricting daily activities. The nature of pain varies significantly, including back pain, cancer pain, arthritis pain, headaches, and nerve-related disorders. Chronic pain, in particular, can evolve into a distinct disease, altering the nervous system and the body’s overall functioning.
At UT Health Pittsburg, we are committed to providing exceptional care for individuals suffering from chronic and acute pain. We offer a variety of treatments and therapies specifically tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient. Leveraging the latest in medical advancements and supported by a compassionate care team, we strive to alleviate pain and enhance the quality of life for our patients, underlining our dedication to your healing and overall well-being.
