- Up-to-date information relating to the management of patients living with long-term pain.
- Includes highlighted key points to emphasise learning opportunities
- Each chapter features relevant case histories to illustrate common clinical themes
- Includes references for further reading
Designed for primary care clinicians, this book is about patients who suffer with long term pain. Written in a distinct, friendly style, it analyses ideas about pain from the simple to the complex and provides up-to-date and relevant information written by doctors whose practice is either wholly or substantially related to people with pain. It provides examples of everyday patients to provide clinicians with the confidence to prescribe and treat patients with more difficult pain. In an attempt to 'demystify' some areas of pain medicine it also includes details of the science behind common conditions and their remedies in order to emphasise the psychological and social
impacts of pain. Readership: Aimed at primary care clinicians (including general practitioners, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and pharmacists) and hospital doctors

"This is an extremely useful book for primary care physicians and general surgeons.
