Pain-Related Quality of Life

Pain-Related Quality of Life refers to how chronic pain affects a person’s daily experience, well-being, and ability to enjoy life. It considers factors like physical functioning, emotional health, social interactions, and overall satisfaction. When pain is persistent or severe, it can limit activities, cause emotional distress, and reduce social engagement, leading to a decreased quality of life. Improving pain management aims not just to reduce discomfort but also to help individuals regain independence, emotional balance, and meaningful relationships, enhancing their overall life experience despite ongoing pain issues.
