A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pain is broad issue: Diffuse, non specific aches and pains without a specific locale can suggest depression. Chronic pain, type and location will help your doctor localize and focus treatment. Acute pain due to an injury or chronic pain due to an old, improperly treated injury is one set of issues. Chronic pain in an extremity could be orthopedic, due to nerve injury, restless legs or simply the wrong set of shoes.
