If you deal with pain that affects your health or activities, you’re not alone. A new study found that pain was a problem for close to one in three employees at a Fortune 100 company.

Researchers found that lost days at work and productivity from pain is a major problem. Four common conditions that cause pain – arthritis, back pain, headaches and musculoskeletal problems – cost more than $62 billion in lost work productivity a year.

A link was also found between pain and overall health. Pain appeared to be connected with a 23% decline in mental health and 45% drop in physical health. The study was published in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine.

PAIN TIPS:

- Talk to your doctor – ask your health care professional about your pain. Weigh the pros and cons of options your doctor suggests, talk to friends and family and make the decision that is best for you.

- Try deep breathing – try taking in slow deep breaths. Focus your attention on the feeling and sound of your breath as you breathe in. As you exhale, imagine you're breathing out the pain.

- Stay active – though pain will likely discourage you from wanting to move and be active, look for exercises and activities you can safely do. Exercise improves circulation, which can help improve pain for some people.

- Stop the pain. Start doing what you want. Get TriVita’s soothing Quick-Relief Gel™ today. To learn more about this product, visit www.trivita.com/13011183
