AB Most  pain  is  acute  and  short  lived.  Acute  pain  is  primarily  a  symptom  of  a  pathological  process  or  injury.  Typically  treating  the  illness  or  injury  will  reduce  or  eliminate  acute  pain  symptoms.  Analgesic  medications  are  often  used  in  this  setting  for  comfort  during  the  healing  process.  For  the  most  part,  treatment  of  the  underlying  pathology  or  injury  and  medication  management  are  effective  in  the  treatment  of  acute  pain.  Many  resources  exist  for  assisting  clinicians  with  acute  pain  management  strategies.
