Chronic pain is complex and the solution is usually not simple. Opioids are not the “one fits all solution,” but in fact can often be harmful. The primary purpose is not for chronic pain. Only in exceptional cases are they really safe to use beyond a short period of time. Those who are prescribed opioids for chronic pain have legitimate pain management needs that are assessed and carefully managed by medical professionals. 

Everyone deserves the freedom to live healthy and pain free . There are many resources for those with chronic pain to explore. Along with the collaboration of their doctor, determine what method or methods suit their needs.
