Abstract

Trying to treat something, i.e, invisible brings forth challenges, obstacles, and belief systems that may prevent proper treatment. Chronic pain clearly falls into this category but the undertreatment of pain exists in all aspects of health care. One main reason for this misery is the existence of inadequate knowledge among clinicians regarding pain management. The basic knowledge about the pain pathway, modulation of pain, concept of sensitization, psychological aspect of pain, use of different pharmacological agents in various types of pain along with pathophysiology of chronic and persistent pain is very important in understanding different kinds of pain in a better way. But unfortunately, in our undergraduate and postgraduate curriculums, not much emphasis has been made on this important matter. Hopefully, busting these deficiencies among clinicians will ensure that no one lives with unnecessary pain or receives an incomplete pain treatment plan again.
