💡 Sex & gender shape how people experience chronic pain — from access to care to treatment outcomes. Yet these factors are often overlooked.

This #NPAW2025, let’s raise awareness so everyone living with pain gets the care they need. 💪

💡 Le sexe et le genre influencent la façon dont les gens vivent la douleur chronique – de l’accès aux soins aux résultats des traitements. Ces facteurs sont souvent négligés.
À la #NPAW2025, sensibilisons et agissons pour que chacun reçoive les soins dont il a besoin.

[National Pain Centre @mcmasternpc]

Nociplastic pain occurs when the brain & spinal cord amplify or misinterpret pain signals — even without injury.
🧠 Research helps us learn how to retrain the nervous system & prevent chronic pain.

Il y a encore des préjugés sexistes dans notre système de santé qui font que les femmes souffrant de douleur chronique sont souvent ignorées ou sous-traitées. Suivez le travail effectué pour créer un accès équitable aux soins en douleur: https://t.co/Q8qz2LhmM1
