    ALL ABOUT PAIN

  • 8/9/2019 painpresentation-100316212754-phpapp02

    2/43

    The nervous system’s response to noxious (harmful)stimuli, also known as “nociception”

     Examples of external stimuli: pricking, cutting,crushing, urning, free!ing

     Examples of internal stimuli: swelling,

    in"ammation, #istention ($ote: These are noxiousstimuli, ut other stimuli must cause these stimuli%swelling, for instance, #oes not usually happen on itsown)

    &everal factors contriute to reception of pain

    'echanical stimulation from sharp oect

    otassium release# from the insi#es of the#amage# cells

    rostaglan#ins, histamines, an# ra#ykinin from

    There are Two “+aves” of ain

     

    $ociceptors

     .ree nerve en#ings (#en#rites) in the skin thatpick up the information from the painful stimuli

    /nly respon#s to extreme pressure ortemperature

     .oun# almost everywhere: from skin to teethpulp to oint memranes to muscles

     $ociceptors are the #en#rites of nerve *ers

    There are two types of axons of these nerve*ers

     0#elta *ers

     10nerve *ers (two types)
