It’s #NPAW2022. Did you know Indigenous peoples are less likely to seek and access care due to their pain often being minimized or stigmatized? It’s time to #PrioritizePain, address inequities and remove barriers to care in our health care system. https://t.co/tBRtiizFmX

Did you know chronic pain is a common driver of substance use, and that it is experienced by 31-55% of people who use drugs? Treating pain must be recognized as a component of overdose prevention. #NPAW2022 #PrioritizePain https://t.co/tBRtiizFmX

Direct costs (physician's services, prescription drugs and hospital inpatient/outpatient care) were between $15.1 and $17.2 billion - more than 10% of total combined health expenditures for these costs.

An estimated 7.6 million, or one in five people (across their lifespan), live with #ChronicPain. Pain impacts all demographics in Canada, although not equally. It is more common as we age, with approximately 1 in 3 people 65+ experiencing #ChronicPain.
