Chronic pain is defined as pain that has been present for more than 12 weeks (SIGN, 2013). Only the person experiencing pain can know exactly what pain feels like. Chronic pain can be associated with other diseases, but is also a diagnosis in its own right.
The Lothian Chronic Pain Service is made up of the Chronic Pain Clinic and the Pain Management Programme (PMP) and is based across different sites in Lothian.
