Chronic pain happens for many different reasons and not only as a consequence of tissue injury. There are also many different risk factors. This chapter describes two patients and how pain becomes long term for the second.
This resource provides an overview of the management of patients with long-term pain for primary care clinicians. Written in a distinct yet informal style, the book will cover the science underlying common pain syndromes and their modern management.
