General symptoms and signs

One in twenty individuals in the UK are disabled by visceral pain, such as endometriosis, Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis, and Polycystic Kidney Disease. The condition is a terrible burden for those who suffer from it: causing pain not only during the most intimate moments of their lives, but also frequently triggering unpredictable episodes of pain “flares” that can need hospital admission.
This UK wide online survey is part of a wider ADVANTAGE Visceral Pain Consortium that will look to gain a better understanding of how people experience chronic visceral pain. We will gather data on how and where people feel their pain, by using questionnaires and online 'body maps'. We will ask participants for their consent to be added to a UK-wide database of visceral pain patients who can contacted to take part in future research.
Our ultimate aim is to improve our understanding of visceral pain from the perspective of people living with the condition, so that the NHS can develop and offer patients more effective interventions and support to address the diverse nature of their symptoms and help improve their quality of life.
