in the latest Newsweek magazine. Both acute and chronic pain are discussed. Because of the Iraq war, pain is a hot research topic now and the article reports new findings. There are currently no treatments for chronic pain that are totally safe and effective, but there are many helpful treatments and approaches discussed in the article.

The article is too long to quote here. The link to an online copy is http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18881802/site/newsweek/ .
