Langevin, M.D. December 16, 2022 USA Today recently published a series on chronic pain, written by long-time health reporter Karen Weintraub. Over the course of her reporting, she gathered insights from a wide range of experts, and I'm happy to have had the opportunity to share perspectives on behalf of the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH).   The series highlighted various important aspects of the pain discussion, including the unmet needs in preventing and managing pain, the public health crisis and human costs of opioid addiction and overdose, the pain burden across the lifespan, including in childhood, potential future directions for treating pain, and what we know today about the role of complementary and integrative approaches to managing pain.
