What PAIN is?
What the textbooks would
have you believe about
pain
Noxious stimulus to the body.
Two kind of stimuli
1. Noxious stimulus (strong stimulus)
2. Innocuous stimulus ( mild stimulus)
No pain stimulus

Nociceptive Pain is pain
that generated from
nociceptors
1. NOCICEPTORS
What is a nociceptor?
Nociceptors are peripheral sensory
neurons that respond selectively to
noxious stimuli.
,
THE BEGINNING OF INFLAMMATION PAIN
Two distinct sensations
(dual pain sensation)
Pain intensity
C fiber=second pain
later dull, somewhat
prolonged sensation

Injury

Role of nociceptors
and primary afferent
neurons are:
1. TRANSDUCTION

3.DORSAL HORN NEURONS
Dorsal Horn Neurons
Is highly organized center of neurons
The place where afferent input is processed.
The place where terminal endings of primary
afferent ( first order neuron) and receiving
neurons (second order neurons) synapse.
Where interaction between excitatory and
inhibitory system.
Two types of second order nociceptive neurons
are found in DHN.
1. NS (Nociceptive-Specific Neurons
2. WDR (Wide-Dynamic Range Neuros)
4. ASCENDING PATHWAYS
Ascending Pathways
5 ascending pathways have been recognized.
1. SPINOTHALAMIC TRACT
Discriminative pathway location of pain
2. SPINORETICULAR TRACT
Emotional aspect of pain (“suffering pathway”)
3. DORSAL HORN COLUMN TRACT
Transmission of visceral pain
4. SPINOMESENCEPHALIC TRACT
• Behavioral response
5. SPINOHYPOTHALAMIC TRACT

Perception
Pain Perception
Is the end result of the
Perception
neural activity starting
from Transduction, Pain
Brain
Conduction, Modulation Perception
and Transmission pain,
where pain becomes a
conscious
multidimensional
experience. Pain has
affective-motivational,
sensory-discriminative,
emotional and behavioral
components.
Pain has multidimensional
experience
1. sensory – discriminative
Identifies the intensity, type and location of
pain
2. Affective – motivational
Assessing the injury the meaning of injury
Prof. Hyodo
Sensitization theory by Woolf et
Is the net process starting from:
Nociceptor activation
Neural conduction
Spinal transmission
Noxious modulation
Limbic & frontal – cortical perception
Spinal & supra spinal response.
After the injury is occurred sensitization in
the periphery and centrally. (Hyperalgesia
and allodynia)
After tissue damage it occurs
peripheral and central
sensitization
