Please let me know if there is a name for being addicted to pain?

Addicted to pain?: Other than masochism, I have no idea. I have had many patients addicted to pain medication, and I have had a handful of patients where their pain became an important part of their own identity, but i wouldn't consider that an "addiction." need more information.
