    AbstractPainful polyneuropathy is one of the most common chronic pain syndromes neurologists are asked to assess for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. This article reviews the most current clinical guidelines, including history, pain assessment, physical examination findings, treatment recommendations, and pathophysiologic pain mechanisms underlying this condition. As a result of recent advances, the understanding and therapy of pain associated with polyneuropathy has evolved over the past several years and will continue to do so in the years to come.
