Abstract Introduction Chronic pancreatitis is defined as a disease of the pancreas in which recurrent inflammatory episodes result replacement pancreatic parenchyma by fibrous connective tissue individuals with genetic, environmental, and other risk factors. Pain one most important symptoms chronic and, many cases, has visceral nociceptive, nociplastic, even neuropathic components, evidence both central peripheral sensitization, neuroplasticity, neurogenic inflammation. Methods The literature on diagnosis treatment pain was reviewed summarized. Results Treatment abdominal guided morphology imaging, although correlation between pathoanatomical changes not always straightforward. Patients duct obstruction are initially offered endoscopic or surgical therapies, while non‐obstructive mostly managed medically. Lifestyle psychological support particular importance for all patients. Analgesic options range from non‐opioid medications to opioids adjuvant agents. Interventional management may consist radiofrequency splanchnic nerves spinal cord stimulation. To date, there no randomized trials supporting their efficacy pain, recommendation consider these justified observational studies. Possible opioid‐sparing effects interventional treatments because opioid use dependency common patients associated worse outcomes. Celiac plexus block generally recommended due limited quality evidence, overall short duration effect, invasiveness procedure. Central sensitization can impact effectiveness invasive treatments. Conclusions Managing complex task that requires multidimensional individualized approach. Due lack trials, decisions often expert opinion. Integrating pharmacological non‐pharmacological interventions collaborating multidisciplinary team key components effective management.
