Each one of us has experienced physical pain at some point in life. Irrespective of the nature or the degree of such a pain we can all agree that it surely is a cause of discomfort. We can only imagine the plight of someone suffering from chronic pain. If it is you or someone you know who is suffering from chronic pain syndrome, you know how tough even performing the simple tasks in life may become. Depending upon the cause behind this chronic pain, you may be eligible to make a claim. While it is true that money cannot take away the discomfort, it can surely help with the treatment and with coping with the new adjustments that you may need to make in life. More than anything else, it is something you deserve for being the victim of an unfortunate incident that was beyond your control.
What is chronic pain?
In simple terms, chronic pain is a pain that lasts for more than six months. However, its nature and degree varies from being episodic to continuous and from mild to excruciating. The effect that the chronic pain syndrome has on anybody is largely conditioned by the type of pain that the individual is suffering. Hence it can be mild or something that a person can live without major discomfort to something that is entirely incapacitating.
One of the worst effects of chronic pain syndrome is psychological. In other words, it often causes anxiety, stress, depression, anger, and fatigue. These psychological conditions often work in complex ways with the body to increase the sensation of pain and even suppress the immune system. Since the sensation or signal of the pain remain active in the nerves for days, months, or even years, a chronic pain syndrome can cause a series of complex physical and psychological problems.
When are you eligible to make a chronic pain claim?
Like the nature of chronic pain syndrome, the cause behind it can also be varied. It may be an injury that triggers such a pain or even an incident where you were the victim. In either case you may be eligible to make a claim. Depending upon its complex mind-body association, the treatment involves addressing both physical and psychological issues. Getting compensation is the first step towards that treatment and towards coping with a life that the pain might have affected to a large degree and changed forever.
