I absolutely do not want to minimize your experience, but I also want to point out that pain doesn't have to be excruciating to be life changing. Even 1 out of 10 pain can make it harder to concentrate or sleep, and, without proper management, can be debilitating. Chronic excruciating pain is, of course, oh so much worse. But even mild pain, when it extends out across months and years and decades, is not something you can appropriately manage by just rubbing some tough on it.

Chronic pain sensitizes you further, having this awareness helps you deal with your condition better. I highly recommend reading the following article. https://www.painscience.com/articles/pain-is-weird.php https://www.painscience.com/articles/pain-is-weird.php And as Dave Chappelle says - Got to find a way to find joy in your existence in spite of that feeling.
