“[The pain] is with you 24 hours a day. You don’t sleep. You don’t eat right. It just consumes your whole life. ”
chronic pain
Pain can have many different causes, but the effects are the same – loss of mobility and loss of quality of life. If you have experienced pain that has lasted longer than six months, you may have what is known as chronic pain. While the best treatment for chronic pain addresses the specific cause of that pain, this isn’t always possible or practical. For chronic pain that is difficult to treat or that has resisted other forms of pain control, Codman & Shurtleff, a DePuy company, offers a solution – pain management pumps that can be implanted directly into the body.
