Burn injuries can be causing the most intense and prolonged types of pain. Pain in such patients can also cause psychologic and functional difficulties, and is difficult to predict from wound depth. The fundamental problem of the burn pain treatment is insufficient analgesia. The pain management of the burn patient can be very difficult and necessitate enough experience because of individual differences of the patients and pain that involve different components. The psychological support and treatment is also as important as pharmacological treatment. The success rate of the pain treatment of the burn patient can be increased with the multidisciplinary approach based on the decision of the most appropriate pain treatment modalities for individual patient and the principles of the pain treatment.
