EDITOR'S PICK

Pain management (also called pain medicine; algiatry) is a branch of medicine employing an interdisciplinary approach for easing the suffering and improving the quality of life of those living with pain. The typical pain management team includes medical practitioners, clinical psychologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and nurse practitioners. Pain sometimes resolves promptly once the underlying trauma or pathology .

when pain persists after the injury or pathology has healed, and when medical science cannot identify the cause of pain, the task of medicine is to relieve suffering.

It is more than back pain. What we can refer to as stress-related disorders have turned out to be more widespread: It´s low back, upper back and neck; it´s pain involving the knees, pain involving the feet. From what I understand from an article in the New York Times, there were 10 million people in the United States with foot pain, which is an epidemic. And all of these pain syndromes have spread in epidemic fashion in the United States over the last 30 years & precisely because they are mind/body disorders that have been incorrectly diagnosed, and therefore, as far as I&m concerned, incorrectly treated.
