What Effect Does Sleep Have on Chronic Pain?

Sleep and chronic pain can have a significant impact on one another. Pain may make it difficult to fall or stay asleep, while poor sleep can increase pain sensitivity, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.

Understanding this connection is an important part of comprehensive pain management. Pain Treatment Centers of America considers factors such as sleep when developing personalized treatment plans.

The Connection Between Sleep & Chronic Pain

Chronic pain can affect many aspects of daily life, including mobility, mood, and overall quality of life. It can also interfere with sleep, making it difficult to fall asleep, stay asleep, or feel rested.

For people living with chronic pain, sleep and pain can influence one another. Poor sleep may make pain feel more difficult to manage, while ongoing pain can make it harder to get the restorative sleep the body needs.

At Pain Treatment Centers of America, we take a comprehensive approach to chronic pain management, considering the many factors that may influence each patient’s pain experience—including sleep. A personalized pain management plan can help address the individual factors contributing to your pain and overall well-being.

What to Expect During Permanent Implantation

If a spinal cord stimulation (SCS) trial is successful, you may proceed with a permanent SCS system. During the procedure, leads are placed near the spinal cord, and the pulse generator is positioned under the skin. The system is programmed to deliver stimulation based on your individual needs.

As with any medical procedure, permanent SCS implantation involves potential risks and may not be appropriate for everyone. Your provider will review the benefits, risks, alternatives, and expected recovery before treatment.
