long-lasting pain even after the initial injury
has healed. This can result from nerve damage or
inflammation at the injury site. Medical

fibromyalgia, and multiple sclerosis often cause
persistent pain due to ongoing inflammation,
nerve damage, or muscle strain. Surgery

are damaged during the procedure or if there is
prolonged inflammation or scarring in the
affected area. Neuropathic Pain This type of
pain is caused by damage to the nervous system,

recovery. Padda Institute an interventional pain
