INTRODUCTION
THE MARKET FOR PAIN MANAGEMENT
Pain is one of the most common ailments known to man and every person responds differently to pain. As pain is highly individualized and subjective, the person that is actually experiencing the pain is the only authority on that particular pain. Past pain experiences influence each individual's perception of pain, pain tolerance, and reaction to pain. Pain experiences can leave lasting emotional and physical impressions.
A number of factors influence an individual's reaction to pain including age, cultural background, degree of pain, perception, meaning of pain, past experiences, social expectations, physical and mental health, parental attitudes concerning pain, fear, anxiety, fatigue and the setting in which pain occurs.
Pain management, though constantly improving, remains suboptimal in some respects due to both inadequacies of health care delivery and in the range of available drugs and devices and other therapeutic modalities.
