Chronic Pain
Pain is a symptom of illness and injury. When the illness is cured or the injury is healed, the pain usually goes away.
However, if the pain continues, it can impair day-to-day functioning and cause emotional and physical stress. Continuing pain may be caused by a chronic or recurring illness, such as cancer, arthritis, herpes zoster (shingles), disc disease, bone disease or migraine. While chronic pain cannot always be eliminated, its impact on your life can be reduced through pain management services at East Georgia Regional Medical Center.
