Practical approaches for clinicians in chronic pain management: Strategies and solutions

Chronic pain, a common and debilitating condition, can arise as a primary disorder like fibromyalgia or as a secondary issue from conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. Often managed by single providers, including primary care or specialists in rheumatology or pain medicine [1], chronic pain treatment is challenging and can lead to high stress and low satisfaction among medical professionals due to the intricate nature of balancing medical and psychosocial care needs [2]. Multidisciplinary approaches, integrating medical and complex psychosocial care, are more effective for chronic pain than any single therapy [3,4]. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive guide, including practical scripts, to help healthcare professionals understand and communicate a personalized, multidisciplinary treatment plan for chronic pain.
