What is the purpose of pain? And what if the pain we feel doesn’t have a purpose anymore?

In this episode, we’ll be getting a bit uncomfortable as we try to comprehend what it’s like living with chronic pain. Join us as we explore the commonalities and linkages between chronic pain and depression to help understand why these two conditions commonly coexist.

We’re joined by Dr. Ernest Choy – Professor of Rheumatology at Cardiff University – as well as Rebecca Gillett and Julie Eller, hosts of the Arthritis Foundation’s “Live Yes with Arthritis” podcast, to hear about their personal experiences with chronic pain and mental health.

The opinions expressed are the opinions of the individuals recorded and not the opinions of Viatris.
