Summary

Everyone has experienced pain at one point or another, but disorders such as fibromyalgia and multiple sclerosis cause severe, long-term pain that can greatly limit a person's everyday activities. Because the cause of this pain is not visible, many people do not fully understand these disorders. This volume dispels the myths surrounding chronic pain to give readers a better understanding of the daily struggles people who suffer from it face. Informative sidebars and detailed infographics help young adults learn how to support a loved one who is dealing with an invisible illness or cope with their own chronic pain diagnosis
