Introduction
Chronic pain is an issue that 1 in 5 people suffer from worldwide. It is important to address this issue because it can be very limiting on our daily lives. It can impact working, which can lead to depression and anxiety, as well as impact the ability to sleep. In this lab, we focus on the relationship between sleep and chronic pain. The purpose of this experiment is to adopt a technique so that it can be used in the future for a better understanding of how mechanical pain works.
