Synopsis:

The attached PDF is about pain management in developing countries and the underlying human right for patients dealing with chronic pain to be relieved of their suffering.  It touches on the lack of training Doctors have (especially in the developing world) in dealing with pain management and how artificial barriers exist preventing low-cost pain relief such as morphine from getting to suffering patients.
