How often is pain associated with PD?

An article published in December 2018 starts with:

"Pain is experienced by the vast majority of patients living with Parkinson's disease. It is most often of nociceptive origin, but may also be ascribed to neuropathic..."

I was researching edema in a neurology text and came across this article. Further along it lists edema as a sign of PD. So PD caused nociceptive pain which leads to edema?

But can one have PD and no real pain?

The edema in my feet is annoying but not painful and I'm guessing it's due to Sinemet. I didn't have edema before starting Sinemet.

So, How often is pain associated with PD?

Found this:

Among the different forms of PD-related pain, musculoskeletal pain is the most common form, accounting for 40%–90% of reported pain

And this:

The main adverse effects of dopaminergic drugs used in Parkinson's disease are hypotension, somnolence, hallucinations and impulse control disorder. Less common is leg edema. We report on a 68-year-old male receiving levodopa and pramipexole consulting for severe leg edema lasting two years, whose etiology was not ascertained with multiple lab tests. This edema subsided substantially when pramipexole was discontinued and the dose of levodopa was increased to treat motor symptoms.

Pain leads to oedema? I dont think so! Oedema could lead to pain though.
