[Basic pain management care by the family physician].
After a cleardiagnosis has been made, many acute as well as chronic pain symptoms can be treated by the family physician on an outpatient basis. For the step therapy of chronic pain, particular attention must be given to the side effects. In some cases, side effects necessitate the use of comedication, such as for nausea, constipation or depression. Particularly complex pain treatments should still be treated by the specialist.
