Chronic pain: a disease in its own right Pain is a major healthcare problem in Europe. Although acute pain may be considered a symptom of diease or injury, chronic and persistent pain is a specific healthcare problem, a disease on its own right. Acute pain, such as that following trauma or surgery, constitutes a signal to a concious brain about the presence of noxious stimuli and/or ongoing tissue damage. This acute pain signal is useful and adaptive, warning the individual of danger and the need to escape or seek help. Acute pain is a direct outcome of the noxious event, and is reasonable classified as a symptom of underlying tissue damage or disease. However, in many patients pain persists long after its usefulness as an alarm signal has passed, and indeed, often long after the tissue damage has healed. Chronic pain in these patients is probably not directly related to their initial injury or disease condition, but rather to secondary changes including ones that occur in the pain detection system itself. In addition to being due to different physiological mechanismus than acute pain, chronic pain often sets the stage for the emergence of a complex set of physical and psychosocial changes that are an integral part of the chronic pain problem and that add greatly to the burden of the pain patient. 23
