Chronic Pain
Chronic pain cannot always be prevented.
Staying in good physical and mental health may be the best way to prevent chronic pain or help you cope with the constant pain. Get enough sleep every night. Treat your health problems early, learn to alternate activity with rest throughout each day, exercise, eat a balanced diet, and try to reduce stress in your life to prevent chronic pain from developing.
