Disease/Condition Glossary

Pain: It can be short-term (acute) or long-term (chronic) in nature. Acute pain is, for a short time, caused by damage to the tissues of the muscle, bone, or organs. Chronic pain lasts for a longer duration and is caused due to pathologies like nerve damage, osteoarthritis, and dental pain due to damage to the tooth nerve, infection, decay, extraction, or injury. Many women have painful periods known as dysmenorrhea, most often menstrual cramps. On the other hand, Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease that results in chronic pain in joints (especially knee) and stiffness, making daily tasks difficult.
