简要总结
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the second most common chronic musculoskeletal problem. Chronic pain is a hallmark for OA knee pain, causes changes in the brain which are engaged with medial prefrontal limbic region resulting in both physical and psychological changes, the phenomenon of central sensitization plays a crucial role in subjects with chronic arthritic pain resulting from hypersensitivity of central nervous system. Current evidence provide strong support for pain neuroscience education which positively influences pain rating pain knowledge improving limitation of movement and fear avoidance behaviour .Majority of literature review suggest that both clinical identification and treatment of OA using pain neuroscience education in reducing pain intensity improving cognition,emotional and functional aspects is still insufficient.
