| Core Tip |
Chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) is a common condition affecting 20%-30% of adults worldwide, with a higher prevalence in females. It manifests as persistent pain in muscles, bones, joints, tendons, or ligaments lasting over three months. CMP is a complex issue with medical, psychological, and psychosocial risk factors. It is also known as psychogenic musculoskeletal pain. Diagnosis of CMP requires a comprehensive evaluation by specialists and diagnostic tests. Treatment options include medications, physiotherapy, and psychotherapy. Researchers suggest that psychogenic pain involves intricate neurobiological and biopsychosocial elements. Cultural considerations in pain reporting and expression are essential in managing patients with CMP. |
