Pain isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s your body’s way of telling you something matters.
Pain can feel like burning, aching, throbbing, shooting, or tingling, and it can show up in different ways:
• Acute pain often starts suddenly and improves with treatment
• Chronic pain lasts longer and may require ongoing care
• Episodic pain comes and goes, sometimes with no clear cause
Understanding the type of pain you’re experiencing can help guide the right treatment—whether that’s medication, physical therapy, movement, lifestyle changes, or working closely with your care team.
If pain persists, worsens, or interferes with daily life, don’t ignore it. Your provider can help identify the cause and create a plan that supports relief, mobility, and quality of life.
