For this, it is important to understand current research progress on musculoskeletal pain management. The purpose of the present study is to provide a comprehensive insight into the current state of research and global trends in musculoskeletal pain management.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Publications on musculoskeletal pain management from 1972 to 2021 were retrieved from the Science Citation Index\u2010Expanded (SCIE) database. Included articles were any article type related to aspects of musculoskeletal pain management, including etiology, mechanisms, epidemiology, treatment, outcomes, side effects, and patient compliance. Publication data were analyzed using bibliometric methods. The software VOSviewer was employed to perform bibliographic coupling, co\u2010authorship, co\u2010citation, and co\u2010occurrence analysis, and to visualize publication tendencies in musculoskeletal pain management.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 5475 articles were included in this study. The number of global publications on musculoskeletal pain management has escalated annually. Based on the number of publications and citations from the published literature, as well as the H\u2010index, the United States led global contributions in this area. The institutions making the highest contributions were the League of European Research Universities (LERU)<jats:italic>,<\/jats:italic> the University of Sydney, and Harvard University. The journal <jats:italic>BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders<\/jats:italic> published the highest number of articles in this area. The published studies fall under six groups: \u201cPrevention and rehabilitation,\u201d \u201cEtiology and diagnosis,\u201d \u201cClinical study,\u201d \u201cEpidemiology,\u201d \u201cMental health,\u201d and \u201cEducation.\u201d High\u2010quality primary studies and epidemiology are predicted to be the next prevailing topics in this field of research.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Based on current global trends, the number of publications on musculoskeletal pain management will continue to increase.
