According to the statistics: the annual number of new cancer incidence of about 1.8 million, of which 62 per cent with pain. Cancer pain is not only a medical problem, it is a social problem. The World Health Organization has made in 1982 “in 2000 to achieve a world entirely free of pain,” the specific objectives, we in the year 2000 to achieve this goal the possibility of how much it » It is necessary to change traditional concepts, or cancer pain it will be difficult to do a good job. Of course, this requires us to medical professionals to educate patients, the media also need your help to correct the idea spread to the whole society. Some people think that often, once the cancer patients with pain drugs, it means that the bell has sounded an ominous, very harmful effects of such a concept. In real life, many people think that as long as the pain of cancer patients use the drug, in particular the use of codeine, morphine and other potent analgesic drugs, cancer that has entered the “end stage.” This is a misunderstanding. Due to the impact of this misconception, many cancer patients fear the so-called “end stage” approach, it Qiangren pain torture, reject the use of analgesics, or pain because of Nanren, the patient started using pain medicine, but that the “end stage” Coming to the continued loss of confidence in treatment and survival.

Cancer pain of cancer incidence is in the process of the general phenomenon, can occur at any stage. Despite the pain of advanced cancer patients in the proportion of relatively higher, but early stage cancer patients cancer pain can also occur, or even possible severe pain.

The pain of physical, physiological and psychological damage caused by not only affect the patient’s quality of life, but it will also affect the implementation and effectiveness of treatment. Some patients for pain control and have not been satisfied with losing patience and might even give up the opportunity to cure cancer.
For all the pain of cancer patients should be active treatment, pain treatment in addition to reducing the suffering of patients, but also help to improve the quality of life and contribute to the successful completion of anti-cancer treatment.

Therefore, the radical anti-cancer treatment markedly effective, it is also necessary to actively pain treatment for cancer treatment can be completed smoothly. In addition, has lost its radical anti-cancer treatment opportunities for patients, pain may be some patients only acceptable and effective methods of treatment because of pain in cancer patients may enable painless state with long-term cancer survival, for the treatment time And opportunities.
