Summary

This study tested two behavioral programs—coping skills training and general health education—to see which better improves well-being in people with ongoing pain after breast cancer surgery. About 316 participants who had surgery for breast cancer or precancerous conditions took part. The goal was to reduce pain severity and interference with daily life, and to understand how thoughts and emotions affect pain.
