Estimates suggest that 50 to 100 million persons in the United States suffer from some kind of chronic pain condition. There is no indication that the prevalence or incidence is decreasing with time. Indeed, the number of hospital admissions for children complaining of pain is increasing. Chronic pain has finally come to be recognized as a disease process, not unlike diabetes and hypertension.
