Abstract:ABSTRACT Chronic pain is defined by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) as an unpleasant sensory experience which duration exceeds six months or is maintained even though the cause that produced it has disappeared. It affects 20% of the population between 18 and 30 years, causing an impact on all the vital aspects: physical, psychological, emotional and social. This situation represents a reduction in the quality of life, especially for young people because they are in a life stage full of challenges and a perfect health is expected from them. Aims: to know the experience of a young person with non-neoplastic chronic pain in her health-disease process. Explore which aspects of daily life affect more on quality of life, coping strategies, future expectations and perceptions of society, health workers and nursing intervention. Material and methods: phenomenological qualitative case study based on a young's experience with non-neoplastic chronic pain in young, realized through a semi-structured interview. Results: in the stage of youth social relations as both academic preparation / job placement and leisure activities are very important. Pain represents a decrease or inability to perform these activities, generating feelings of frustration and anger and a serious impact on quality of life. Conclusions: a social recognition of chronic pain in young people is required, as well as an optimization of their management and control, in which the figure of the nurse could provide a new perspective, thus improving the therapeutic approach.
