Not all pain looks the same. During Animal Pain Awareness Month, it's important to understand the difference between chronic and acute pain. Chronic pain is persistent and long-term, often caused by arthritis or ongoing conditions. Acute pain comes on suddenly and is usually linked to an injury. If your pet seems uncomfortable or isn't acting like themselves, a veterinary exam can help identify the cause and provide relief. ๐พ๐
