Session outline
Chronic pain is subject to influence from a multitude of factors, encompassing genetics, hormones, anatomy, and psychology. It is worth noting that there is a greater incidence of chronic pain among the female population. The symposium also sheds light on the gender-specific challenges associated with chronic pain syndromes, such as chronic pelvic pain and chronic myofascial pain syndrome, through the utilization of advanced rehabilitation management techniques.
