Pain Conditions
Joint Pain and Osteoarthritis
Joint pain, stiffness, and swollen joints could point to a chronic condition called osteoarthritis (OA). This condition can inhibit patients’ lifestyles and severely hinder their physical activity. Experts agree that healthier habits, like losing excess weight, exercise, and disease state education are integral non-drug treatments for OA.2,3
Headaches
Headaches are a common condition that most people will experience sometime in their life, characterized by pain in any region of the head. The pain can be throbbing, sharp or dull. Migraines are a neurovascular disorder characterized by severe throbbing pain usually on one side of the head. They are often accompanied by nausea, vomiting and sensitivity to light and sound. Diagnosing headache and migraines are important to help patients recognize triggers and find treatment plans that will help improve their quality of life.

#ListenToPain
Getting patients to open up about pain has never been easy. Societal and cultural taboos affect how patients talk about pain, even with professionals. Age, gender, and background also change how patients and HCPs engage. However, by acknowledging all of these factors, and asking the right questions, HCPs can connect with patients and open new avenues of conversation. Our new #ListenToPain initiative aims to equip HCPs with a range of tools & resources that can help them achieve better patient outcomes through better HCP-patient conversations.
Musculoskeletal Pain
The musculoskeletal system includes bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments and soft tissues, and works to support your body weight and help you move within your daily life. Over time, a wide range of disorders and conditions—from sports injuries and the natural aging process to congenital anomalies and osteoarthritis—can lead to issues within the musculoskeletal system that often result in acute and/or chronic pain symptoms, decreased mobility, and lower quality of life for sufferers.
