In an attempt to raise awareness on Musculoskeletal Pain, which is the most common of all pain, the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) has designated the year beginning on October 19, 2009 until October 19, 2010 as the Global Year Against Musculoskeletal Pain.
There will be a variety of resources and educational materials available through the IASP for those who want more information on this topic.
The IASP chooses a different pain topic to focus on each year in their mission to educate and raise awareness.
For more information on this and the ISAP, go to www.isap-pain.org.
