The chronic pain medical articles have been assembled by TMT with information derived from reputable medical sources such as the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the U.S. Government's National Institutes of Health. They are current as of the website versions of January 2005 or later. You will normally get a recently updated version of the article by clicking on one of the INTERNET LINKS below (the U.S. Government articles are often updated several times a year). You may find it useful to complete one of the medical pain questionnaires based on the articles on this page (see http://masterdocs.com/pain.htm).  To see one of the articles below, click the link with your computer mouse. You can read it in your browser, print it, or save it to your hard disk.
              

INTERNET LINKS

The links below will take you directly to a reputable medical Internet site. Click (with your computer mouse) on any of the colored pain locations in the table below. This will open a new window taking you to a reputable Internet site (for example, a site run by the National Institutes of Health of the US government, or by a major medical school) that gives you information about some types of pain that occur in that location.

To get back from that site to the www.masterdocs.com Web site, close the new window and you will see this Diagnoses page. Occasionally, one of these outside sites may be having a temporary problem and you won't see the medical information - if so, just try the site again later. In other cases, the web page may no longer be available.
