Article Abstract
Somatic symptoms are the foremost reason that individuals seek medical care, and most patients present with these symptoms in the primary care setting. Thus, clinicians must be able to recognize the manifestations of chronic pain as well as devise and implement an individualized treatment strategy that will relieve pain, manage any psychiatric comorbidities, and improve functioning and quality of life.
