More than one third of our consultations in primary care are about musculoskeletal problems and associated pain. After cardiovascular disease, musculoskeletal problems account for the most missed days from work, disability and morbidity. Persistent pain is a huge challenge for clinicians and patients alike and the UK has not escaped the opiate prescribing epidemic.
