DESCRIPTION:Herta Flor\, Institute of Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience\
 , The Central Institute of Mental Health\, Mannheim\, Germany  \nWe repor
 t evidence that both implicit learning such as sensitization\, pavlovian a
 nd instrumental conditioning and explicit memory processes play a major ro
 le in the development and maintenance of chronic pain.\nThese data confirm
  the view that learning processes may be more important for the acquisitio
 n and maintenance of chronic pain than peripheral nociceptive input. Thera
 peutic implications of these findings suggest that pain treatments must st
 art early and that treatments of chronic pain should focus on the extincti
 on of these aversive pain memories and can involve  both pharmacological 
 and behavioral interventions designed to prevent or reverse maladaptive pa
 in-related memory traces.\n
