“…Currently, chronic pain is no longer considered just a symptom, but rather a disease, classified as R 52.1 under the wrong name of intractable disease, in the tenth edition of the International Code of Diseases (ICD10). There are some controversial of chronic pain definition as a “medical unexplained pain” supporting pain as a symptom or as a degree of depression, irritability, and anxiety [ 2 ], in contrast to chronic pain as a disease or injury related to long-lasting changes on peripheral and central neural responses resulting in sensitization [ 3 ].…”

Background and Objectives Chronic pain affects between 30% and 50% of the world population. Our objective was to estimate the prevalence of chronic pain in Brazil, describe and compare differences between pain types and characteristics, and identify the types of therapies adopted and the impact of pain on daily life. Methods Cross-sectional study of a population-based survey with randomized sample from a private database. The interviews were conducted by phone. 78% of the respondents aged 18 years or more agreed to be interviewed, for a total of 723 respondents distributed throughout the country. Independent variables were demographic data, pain and treatment characteristics, and impact of pain on daily life. Comparative and associative statistical analyses were conducted to select variables for nonhierarchical logistic regression. Results Chronic pain prevalence was 39% and mean age was 41 years with predominance of females (56%). We found higher prevalence of chronic pain in the Southern and Southeastern regions. Pain treatment was not specific to gender. Dissatisfaction with chronic pain management was reported by 49% of participants. Conclusion 39% of interviewed participants reported chronic pain, with prevalence of females. Gender-associated differences were found in intensity perception and interference of pain on daily life activities.

“…Chronic pain (CP) affects one-third to 50% of the population (Katz, et al, 2015) with a higher prevalence among females and affecting 62% of adults 75 years and older (Fayaz et al, 2016;Lynch, 2015). CP is a major health care crisis due to its high prevalence and associated physical and emotional incapacity (Sheng et al, 2017).…”

“…Non-pharmacotherapy approaches include healthy living, therapeutic exercise, psychological procedures, and complementary therapies. [5] Although the use of different type of therapy for pain have been studied for decades, there are few published articles identifying the predictors using large sample in Indonesia, especially in the past ten years. The purpose of this study was to identify the significant factors associated with the use of pharmacotherapy in pain relief among Indonesian population.…”

Background: Many factors have been reported to contribute to a decrease in the use of pharmacotherapy to control pain, including the complexity of the medication regime, lack of efficacy, side effects, and cost considerations. Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify the significant factors associated with the use of pharmacotherapy in pain relief among Indonesian population. Methods: The data was obtained from the fifth wave of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS-5). The sample size was 11,516 persons aged 21-60 years with recent pain. Logistic regressions were utilized to explore the associations between independent characteristics and the outcome of medication use for pain complaints. Results: The majority of the participants were females between the ages of 31 and 40, had a high school diploma or less, were working, practiced Islam, and had no restrictions on their daily activities. The proportions of pharmacotherapy users and non- pharmacotherapy users were 51.44% and 48.56%, respectively. Female gender, older age, poor education level, and limitations in daily activities were all linked with a higher usage of medication. Conclusion: In the Indonesian population, having limitations in daily activities was the strongest predictor of pharmacotherapy usage for recent pain. Implication: People who are older, female, or have a poorer level of education should be the primary focus of education to enhance the pharmacological management of their pain.
