Abstract:There is a commonly held belief that the relationship between trauma and pain is strong. The more severe the trauma the more severe the pain. This short commentary demonstrates the fragility of the relationship between trauma and pain and suggests that healthcare professionals should not think of pain in terms of single causes or cures but should treat the person in pain with personalized pain management.
