Of course pain is a perception process by the brain usually related to peripheral nociceptors. So your attitude about the perception you feel can be very important in managing chronic pain. And several people with chronic pain there’s an element of depression and that can also be addressed by the psychiatrist.
No. Neurosurgeon is best for it.
