Chronic Pain Management refers to a multidisciplinary approach aimed at reducing the impact of persistent pain on individuals' physical, psychological, and social functioning. Unlike acute pain, which serves as a warning signal for injury or disease, chronic pain persists beyond the expected healing period and often lacks a clear physiological cause. This field integrates medical, psychological, and rehabilitative strategies to improve quality of life rather than solely targeting pain elimination.

Chronic Stress in the context of psychology refers to a state of ongoing, persistent stress that continues for an extended period, often due to unrelenting demands and pressures of daily life. Unlike acute stress, which is a short-term response to a specific threat or challenge, chronic stress occurs when an individual perceives a sense of having little or no control over recurring or continuous stressors, leading to a prolonged state of physiological and emotional tension.
