Women experience more pain than men, global study finds
Original: Women suffer more pain than men across the whole body, major global study finds https://www. theguardian.com/society/202
A major global study has found that women suffer more pain than men across the whole body, with researchers examining pain levels around the world and across the human lifespan. The steepest rise in the pain gap occurs at a particular stage of life. The findings are prompting discussion about how pain is experienced and treated differently between the sexes.
Why now: New large-scale research challenges assumptions about sex differences in pain, with implications for medical treatment.
