Document Summary

Get rid of the disease, the pain will go away. In-patients: has been in the hospital (stayed) for back pain. Out-patients: treated at least once in the hospital for back pain. Their pain was being caused by something that would cause death. 5: upper back: 5, prevalence of pain by classification, burden of pain. Diseases cause mortality or they don"t: when they don"t, they cause morbidity. Eve would have to bear children in pain: pain as redemption, christ on the cross. A lot of people thought that pain was a lot of temperature or a lot of touch. If you understand what pain is from your own case, then pain is just that wretched experience you sometimes suffer. But when another is in pain, there is none of that wretched experience around. The most you could hope to have experience of is something different in kind: her behaviour.
