Pain[edit | edit source]

According to the International Association for the study of Pain (IASP), pain can be defined as "An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling that associated with, actual or potential tissue damage,”[1]

The prevalence of chronic pain after spinal cord injury varies from 34-90 % and among them 2/3rd of the patient suffer from chronic pain. [2]
