By reviewing the current status of chronic pain and combining with the new definition of pain revised by the International Association for the Study of Pain in 2020, firstly a prevention-based approach, self-management of pain, and multidisciplinary collaboration based on the integration of bio-psycho-social-environmental factors is proposed. The medical mode will greatly improve the treatment effect of chronic pain and the quality of life of patients. Secondly, the importance of strengthening humanistic care and paying attention to health education, as well as improving medical staff’s awareness of chronic pain and the level of diagnosis and treatment are pointed out. Finally, it is clarified that innovative non-drug treatments and the establishment of digital pain management platforms are the future of chronic pain.
