Chronic pain can present in different ways, but may include:

- Fatigue or low energy levels
- Difficulty sleeping or poor-quality sleep
- Increased sensitivity to pain or discomfort
- Low mood, irritability or frustration

In children, we may also see school avoidance, reduced activity levels or changes in mood and behaviour.

- Talking therapy to support coping strategies and address stress, anxiety or low mood
- Medication, where appropriate, to support associated symptoms such as sleep difficulties or mood changes
