Pain has been ignored as a problem by the medical science and society for a long time. The fact that America still doesn't have a National Institute of Pain indicates this lack of attention towards pain. Surprisingly, America does have a National Institute for Addiction.

The primary efforts of American Pain Association are directed towards education and research. We are also working in the area of developing expert consensus statements regarding pain issues.
