Sex & chronic pain - the two can go together
It’s true - when you’re in pain, one of the last things that comes to mind is sex - a romp in the sack or a romantic evening with your lover. But for people who live with chronic pain, giving up sex doesn’t have to be automatic.
It’s known that sex can actually help relieve some pain because of the endorphins (the brain’s natural pain killers) that are released during an orgasm. The issue is, how do you relax enough to enjoy sexual activity if you are in pain?
