Difficult to answer: Chronic pain is a rather tricky condition to treat. Once the actual diagnosis of chronic pain- usually continues long after the injury or insult has healed- determination of neurological involvement must be made. Not all chronic pain requires opioids alone. If your physician is so inclined, you may require a pain management specialist. Talk it over with your physician.
