在过去的十年中，动物疼痛的识别和管理都取得了持续的进展。镇痛剂在动物中使用的激增是受欢迎的，但主要使用领域仍然是伴侣动物和马的术后或创伤后疼痛的控制以及肌肉骨骼疼痛的管理。与其他疾病相关的疼痛管理，如软组织炎症或癌症，仍然相对被忽视。农场动物和用于生物医学研究的动物的疼痛管理也可以进一步改善。除了提供一些有趣的相似之处与疼痛管理的人，兽医疼痛管理的发展有潜在的更大的意义。多年来，动物疼痛管理受益于人类使用的镇痛药。在未来，更好地了解动物疼痛，特别是慢性疼痛状态，可能会导致相反方向的治疗。
The last decade has seen continued progress in both the recognition and management of animal pain. This upsurge in the use of analgesics in animals is welcome, but the main areas of use continue to be the control of postoperative or post-trauma pain, and the management of musculoskeletal pain, in companion animals and horses. The management of pain associated with other conditions, such as soft-tissue inflammation or cancer, is still relatively neglected. Pain management in farm animals, and in animals used in biomedical research could also be improved further. Apart from providing some interesting parallels with pain management in people, development of veterinary pain management has potentially much greater significance. For many years, animal pain management has benefited from the use of analgesics used in man. In the future, it may be that a better understanding of animal pain, and in particular chronic pain states, may lead to translation of therapies in the opposite direction.
