Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chronic pain is defined as pain that persists beyond the expected healing time of an injury or illness, and it typically lasts for three months or longer. Chronic pain can interfere with daily activities and is prolonged in duration. Sudden onset and sharp elevations in body temperature are not typically associated with chronic pain. Lower intensity of pain is not necessarily indicative of chronic pain, as it can vary in intensity.
