Brief Summary
Chronic pain, lasting more than three months, is a widespread health issue that negatively impacts daily life, leading to significant emotional distress and functional impairment. Emotional intelligence, defined as the ability to recognize and manage one's own emotions as well as those of others, has been linked to better communication skills and reduced stress, which is a well-known risk factor for chronic pain. Studies have highlighted a correlation between emotional intelligence and certain chronic pain conditions, such as fibromyalgia and migraines. However, no research has yet explored its role in painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Given the strong involvement of psychosocial factors in TMD etiology, a better understanding of these elements could improve pain management and pave the way for preventive interventions.
