Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Chronic pain is pain that may be limited, intermittent, or persistent but that lasts beyond the normal healing period. Acute pain is generally rapid in onset and varies in intensity from mild to severe. After its underlying cause is resolved, acute pain disappears. It should end once healing occurs.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Visceral pain is poorly localized and originates in body organs in the thorax, cranium, and abdomen. The pain occurs as organs stretch abnormally and become distended, ischemic, or inflamed.
