Women Suffer More than Men

New research has found that women report more pain throughout their lifetime. Compared to men, women feel pain in more areas of their body and for longer durations.
“The bottom line seems to be that women are suffering more than men,” said Ed Keogh, a psychologist from the Pain Management Unit at the University of Bath.
