Pain is a natural reaction and the body's way of conveying that something is wrong. Pain can be acute or chronic. Acute pain occurs in case of injuries. However, any pain lasting longer than three to six months or more is known as chronic pain. It usually has a bearing on the everyday life and mental health of the individual. It may or may not begin due to a particular cause. Some significant causes of chronic pain include past injuries or surgeries, nerve damage, migraines, fibromyalgia, and arthritis. Symptom relief and support are the most essential treatment measures that can be implemented for managing chronic pain. The management of chronic pain usually requires developing pain management programs, which are most often executed on an outpatient basis. The pain management programs usually include various elements such as using OTC drugs and NSAIDs, prescription pain medicine, heat and cold treatments, physical and occupational therapies, exercise, injections, stress management, and relaxation training. Certain extreme cases may also require surgery. This book covers in detail some existent theories and innovative concepts revolving around chronic pain management. It includes the contributions of experts and scientists, which will provide innovative insights into this field.
