Summary

Covid-19 outbreak and lockdown measures raised significant concerns over clinical management of chronic pain patients around the world. Patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMSP) are at high risk of physical disability, psychological distress, and poor quality of life. Analgesic medications were main management during lockdown, but opioid-related concerns have prompted to find immediate alternatives.
