Summary The COVID‐19 pandemic transformed everyday life, but the implications were most impactful for vulnerable populations, including patients with chronic pain. Moreover, persistent pain is increasingly recognised as a key manifestation of long COVID. This narrative review explores consequences Publications identified related to influence on burden pain, development new‐onset because COVID proposed mechanisms and vaccines interventions. Broadly, underlying due SARS‐CoV‐2 infection could be caused by ‘systemic inflammatory‐immune mechanisms’, ‘direct neuropathic mechanisms’ or ‘secondary viral treatment’. Existing populations variably impacted social determinants health appeared degree effect. increased absolute numbers headache. In acute phase, headache presenting symptom predicted milder course. New‐onset was reportedly common likely involves multiple mechanisms; however, its prevalence decreases over time symptoms appear fluctuate. Patients requiring intensive support particularly susceptible symptoms. Some evidence suggests steroid exposure (often used interventions) may affect vaccine efficacy, there no clinical repercussions date. Although existing management help symptomatic relief, need advance research focusing mechanism‐based treatments within domain multidisciplinary care.
