The NMD literature provides strong evidence that chronic pain is a significant problem for many, but not all, persons with NMDs. The rates of pain have been found to vary in different studies and by NMD diagnosis.
Less is known about specific details concerning the nature and impact of chronic pain in persons with NMDs. Additional research is urgently needed to understand NMD-related pain better, especially the effective treatment of NMD-related pain. This research ultimately should contribute to an overall increase in well-being and a decrease in suffering in persons with NMDs and chronic pain. In the meantime, clinicians should use the available, time-honored modalities to address and treat pain in persons with NMDs.
