Pain Management for Hazlet, NJ Why do we experience pain? Pain is the body’s alarm system; it was designed to alert the body when something has gone wrong. Most pain is temporary and resolves on its own. However, some acute pain conditions can persist, indicating that an injury has occurred or illness is present. In such cases, pain is essentially a call to action. Prolonged and excessive pain can be extremely unhealthy for the body.
