    Document: PURPOSE: This study was conducted to determine the effect of pain experienced during the COVID-19 infection on the fear of pain and quality of life of individuals. DESIGN: The study was carried out as descriptive, comparative and correlational design. METHODS: Snowball sampling method was used in the research and the data were collected online. A total of 404 individuals participated in the study. The data were collected using the Descriptive Characteristics Questionnaire, Numeric Rating Scale, Fear of Pain Questionnaire-III and The 36-Item Short Form Health Survey Questionnaire. RESULTS: It was determined that 87.1% of the individuals experienced pain during the COVID-19 and the mean intensity of this pain was 6.16±2.75. In addition, 37.1% of the individuals experienced pain for a while after the COVID-19 and the mean intensity of this pain was 3.81±3.00. The individuals who experienced pain during COVID-19 had higher fear of pain and lower quality of life than those who did not experience pain. There was a significant correlation between the severity of pain experienced during COVID-19 with the fear of pain and the quality of life. CONCLUSIONS: According to the results of the study, it can be said that individuals who experienced intense pain during COVID-19 infection have higher fear of pain and lower quality of life. In addition, as the fear of pain increases, the quality of life of individuals decreases. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Negative pain experiences may lead to fear of pain, and this fear of pain may negatively affect the quality of life.
