View Full Version : can this happen?
Can a pain worsen if your thinking about it constantly? I have an abscess and the pain was so much better but now its really hurting but could it be because I'm sitting here thinking about it? Xx
Yes. When you focus on pain it hurts more. It's universally known.
Of course. You need to distract yourself from the pain, a good film or book maybe. Something to get immersed in.

Definite, focus on something makes it far worse, talking from experience.

Thanks for your help everyone :) its so hard to determine what is real from what is 'in your head' isn't it! Xx
