[Pain and pain perception in the elderly from the viewpoint of rheumatology].
In rheumatology there is the problem of different terminologies and classification systems; additionally there are only few studies on differential diagnosis and course of diseases in people over 65. The analysis of pain is important for diagnosis; people often have problems in exactly describing their pains. The character of pain changes in the course of disease; therefore a continuous pain analysis is necessary.
