Since pain prevents patients from working, doing leisure activities, and pain in general, custom pain therapy helps them live the best life they can.
What is Pain?
Pain is by far the top reason for patients to seek medical attention, a common symptom for a lot of conditions. It affects the quality of life, with some conditions bringing about pain that lasts a lifetime. In some cases, causes of pain aren’t even detectable.
What Are the Pathways for Pain?
Nociceptive Pain (tissue damage)
- Nociceptors are the nerves which sense and respond to parts of the body which suffer from damage. They signal tissue irritation, impending injury, or actual injury. When activated, they transmit pain signals (via the peripheral nerves as well as the spinal cord) to the brain.
- Somatic and visceral causes
- The pain is typically localized, constant, and often with an aching or throbbing quality.
- This type of pain tends to respond well to treatment with opioids.
Neuropathic Pain (nerve damage)
- Pain caused by damage or dysfunction to the neural pathway of the peripheral or central nervous system. Pain signals continue to be generated in the injured/damaged area long after it has healed.
- The pain can be continuous or intermittent burning, shooting, or electrical shock qualities.
- The pain may persist for months or years beyond the apparent healing of any damaged tissues.
- This type of pain is frequently chronic, and tends to have a lesser response to treatment with opioids, but may respond well to other drugs.
