Important symptoms to monitor
If you have symptoms in different parts of your body, take a look at each section of our website for advice on specific symptoms to look out for.
If you have chronic pain and you have any of the following, then we would recommend you speak with your GP soon:
- General feeling of malaise (tiredness)
- Loss of appetite
- Unexplained weight loss
- Pain that wakes you and keeps you awake for a long time at night
You may also notice feeling low in mood. If you ever feel extremely depressed or have considered hurting yourself in some way then please speak with your GP, call 111 or contact the Samaritans for urgent support
Do I need a scan?
Are there things I should avoid?
There is nothing that you should avoid when having chronic pain, but you do need to listen to your symptoms and adjust your activities accordingly.
It is important to keep moving as much as possible. There may be some activities that are painful, but this doesnt mean that is it causing you any damage. One of our physiotherapists will be able to work with you to get you back doing the activities you enjoy.
Should I take pain relief?
It is important to discuss pain relief with your local pharmacist or GP. If your pain levels are better controlled, this will enable you to keep more active and by keeping active it will help to maintain your strength and movement. This approach could lead to a quicker recovery.
A physiotherapist will be able to advise if you need to discuss pain relief with your GP or Pharmacist.
