ACADEMICIA: AN INTERNATIONAL MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH JOURNAL

To understand the phenomenon of pain, it is essential to distinguish two types of pain - acute and chronic. The bulk of scientific research and publications, the subject of which is pain, is devoted to a comprehensive study (epidemiology, clinic, diagnosis, treatment) of this pathological condition in adults, while much less attention is paid to the pediatric aspects of this problem. Among pain syndromes, the most common are headaches (up to 42%), neck and back pain (up to 60%). Back pain is a symptom of many diseases of the spine and internal organs. The World Health Organization considers its treatment to be one of the priority tasks.
