Brief Summary
Children and adolescents with chronic pain often lack a proper diagnosis and treatment. Research has shown that, if left untreated, it usually doesn't resolve and continues through adulthood. The goal of this multi-phase study is to co-develop (with patients), test, and implement a smartphone app called "Digital Solution for Pain in Adolescents" (Digital SPA) which can provide pain management resources to children with chronic pain and their parents, preventing future disability. Participants will: participate in individual and group interviews, respond to questionnaires online and try a smartphone app.
