Abstract
As many as half of all patients with Parkinson's disease experience pain related to their condition. Once this relationship is recognized, the pain can be managed by achieving better control of the disease. In this article, Drs Waseem and Gwinn-Hardy discuss the many causes of this type of pain, which include disease complications and primary sensory pain syndromes. They also present and evaluate the treatment options available.Keywords
