Abstract:
Chronic pain can develop from acute pain, and it is not only difficult to cure, but also easy to develop secondary psychological problems and negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, and the hippocampal plays a vital role in chronic pain. The morphological and functional changes in the hippocampus mediate the development and maintenance of chronic pain. This review focuses on the role of hippocampal abnormalities in chronic pain in recent years, in order to provide new ideas for the treatments of chronic pain and related dysthymic disorder complications in the future.
