TheAnatomyandPhysiologyofPain
CO’s CURE
Hospital Medicine Pilot
Learning Objectives
• Gain insight into of the anatomy and physiology of pain
• Recognize terminology
• Identify the body’s physiological response to pain
• Recognize the effects of pain on the different body
systems
• Apply knowledge to assess and treat pain
Pain
THE TEACHING:
• Medically - pain is a symptom of
an underlying condition
THE MISSION:
• Find the source of pain
• Holistically treat the pain
THE GOAL:
• Return to a realistic, productive
life
“An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or
potential tissue damage.”
The Purpose of Pain
1. Prevents serious injury
• A light touch to something hot forces a quick reaction before serious injury occurs
2. Teaches avoidance
• A painful activity teaches what not to repeat or when to seek help
3. Prevents permanent damage
• Joint pain limits activity
• Surgery requires down time for healing
The Pain Roadmap
Spinal Cord
Brain
Ascending
Pathways
Descending
Pathways
Peripheral
Nerves
• Pain sensation involves a series
of complex interactions between
peripheral nerves and the central
nervous system
• Pain is a dynamic, bidirectional
process
• Multiple areas of the nervous
system help process pain signals
• Normal and pathologic processes
underlie pain mechanisms
The Origin of Pain
Pain Origin
Somatic or Cutaneous Pain • Arises from nociceptive receptors in the skin and mucous
membranes
• Superficial pain
• Feels like sharp, burning, pricking and is constant
• Fast or slow onset
Deep Somatic Pain • Stems from tendons, muscles, joints, periosteum and
blood vessels
Visceral Pain • Originates from internal organs: pelvis, abdomen, chest
and intestines
• Activates nociceptors of the viscera (internal organs in
main cavities of the body)
• Poorly localized and is an achy and dull sensation
• Visceral structures are highly sensitive to stretching,
ischemia and inflammation but insensitive to other
stimuli that normally provoke pain
Psychogenic Pain • Individuals “feel” pain but cause is emotional rather than
physical
The Process of Pain Physiology
• Pain sensation is modulated by two types of neurotransmitters or
neurochemicals:
oNeurochemicals that excite pain or try to initiate pain
oNeurochemicals that inhibit or try to stop the pain
• Pain sensation is composed of four basic processes:
oTransduction
oTransmission
oModulation
oPerception
The Process of Pain Physiology
Process Action
Transduction • Processes by which tissue-damaging stimuli activate nerve endings
• Three types of stimuli can activate pain receptors in peripheral
tissues: mechanical, heat, chemical
• Pain stimuli is converted to energy
• Electrical energy is known as “transduction”
• Stimulus sends an impulse across the peripheral nerve fibers known
as the nociceptor never fibers
Transmission • Nociceptive message is transmitted to the central nervous system
(CNS)
• A delta fibers send sharp, localized and distinct sensations
• C fibers relay impulses that are poorly localized, burning and
persistent
• This is the route by which the CNS is informed of impending or
actual tissue damage
Modulation • Natural inhibition or modulation of pain by the body
• Inhibitory neurotransmitters like endogenous opioids (enkephalins,
dynorphin and endorphins) that work to hinder pain transmission
Perception • Person is aware of the pain
• Somatosensory cortex identifies the location and intensity of the
pain
• Person unfolds a complex reaction – physiological and behavioral
The Transmission of Pain: Afferent Axons
Nerve Fibers Involved in
Transmission of Pain
A – Alpha Fibers
muscle sense
Diameter: 13-20 um
Speed: 80-120 m/s
C - Fibers
pain/temperature/itch
 Small
 Unmyelinated
 Very slow conducting
 Respond to all types of
noxious stimuli
 Transmit prolonged,
dull pain
 Require high intensity
stimuli to trigger
response
 Diameter: . – . um
 Speed: . – . m/s
A - Beta Fibers
touch
A - Delta Fibers
pain/ temperature
 Small
 Lightly myelinated
 Slow conducting
 Respond to heat,
pressure, cooling and
chemicals
 Sharp sensation of pain
 Diameter: 1-5 um
 Speed: 5-35 m/s
 Large
 Myelinated
 Fast conducting
 Low stimulation
threshold
 Respond to light touch
 Diameter: 6-12 um
 Speed: 35-75 m/s
PRIMARY AFFERENT AXONS
The Transmission of Pain: Timing
• The thickness of a nerve fiber correlates directly to the speed with which information travels
• The thicker the nerve fiber, the faster information travels
• A-alpha, A-beta and A-delta nerve fibers are insulated with a protective covering called the myelin
sheath, which helps with nerve conductivity
• C nerve fibers are unmyelinated
• A-delta and C fibers are the main fibers responsible for the transmission of pain, however new studies
suggest A-beta fibers may have an important role to play in the diagnosis and treatment of pain
Fast Pain Slow Pain
• Transmitted by the A-delta nerve fibers at a
velocity of 6-30 m/second
• Felt about 0.1 seconds after a pain stimulus is
applied
• Pin prick, cutting or burning of skin
• Caused by mechanical or thermal stimuli
• Fast, sharp pain is not felt in most deeper tissues
• Neurotransmitter released – glutamate
• Transmission route: Neo-spinothalamic tract
• Transmitted by the C-nerve fibers at a velocity
of 0.5-2 m/second
• Begins after 1 second or more and may range
from seconds to minutes
• Slow, burning, aching, throbbing, nauseous
pain and chronic pain
• Associated with tissue destruction
• Caused mainly by chemical stimuli
Neurotransmitter released – Substance P
• Transmission route: Paleo-spinothalamic tract

Breakout of Pain
CO’s CURE Module Five
Acute Pain
• Occurs in response to injury or illness
• Responds well to interventions
• Resolves well as healing proceeds
• Short-lived
• Less than three months
• Often accompanied by sympathetic
nervous system arousal
• Adaptive pain response
• Helpful pain response, which produces a
behavior that promotes healing
Chronic Pain
• Multiple underlying mechanisms
• Requires multi-modal and interdisciplinary
treatment approaches
• Pain that persists beyond the “normal”
time expected to heal
• Longer than three months
• Changes in both peripheral and central
nervous system processing
• If acute pain is not managed well will
move into the chronic phase

Acute Pain: Nociceptive
What is nociceptive pain?
• Normal response to an injury of tissues
• Most common type of pain
What are nociceptors?
• Nerves that detect or find noxious stimuli
What is nociception?
• Process whereby signals are sent to the brain by nociceptor receptors
What is the cause of nociceptive pain?
• Injury to body tissue to the skin, muscle and bones
Examples:
• Postoperative pain, bruises, burns, fractures, overused joints
• Patients will present with dull, heavy, aching pain that spreads over a wide area
Chronic Pain: Neuropathic
What is neuropathic pain?
• Chronic pain lasts more than six-months
What is the cause of neuropathic pain?
• Pain caused by a primary lesion or disease in the somatosensory nervous system causing varying
degrees of pain sensations
What is some the cause of neuropathic pain?
• Nerve damage due to some type of a viral infection or a disease involving the central or peripheral
nervous system (neuralgias)
Examples:
• Arthritis, migraines, shingles, multiple sclerosis, shingles
• Patients will present with a variety of symptoms from numbness to burning to stinging, pins and
needles and pricking sensations
Chronic Pain: Nociplastic
What is nociplastic pain?
• Nonnociceptive and nonneuropathic pain
• Inflammatory response
How does nociplastic pain work?
• Activation and sensitization of nociceptive pain pathway by a variety of mediators released at a site
of tissue
What causes nociplastic pain?
• Abnormal processing in the central nervous system, however the reason for this abnormality is
generally unknown
Examples:
• Fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome
• Patients will present with a variety of symptoms seen in both acute and chronic pain patients
Mixed Pain
What is mixed pain?
• Mixed pain share common clinical characteristics of all three types of pain
• nociceptive, neuropathic and nociplastic
Potential Examples:
• Sciatica, cancer pain, lumbar spinal stenosis
Other Types of Pain
Type of Pain Elements of the Pain
Breakthrough Pain • Pain is intermittent, transitory and an increase in pain occurs at a greater intensity
• Usually lasts from minutes to hours and can interfere with functioning and quality of
life (e.g., neuropathic pain and lower back pain)
Complex Regional Pain
Syndrome (CRPS)
• Pain condition that most often affects one limb (arm, leg, hand or foot) usually after
an injury
• CRPS is believed to be caused by damage to, or malfunction of, the peripheral and
central nervous system
Phantom Limb Pain • Pain in the absence of a limb
Referred Pain • Pain sensation produced in some part of the body is felt in other structures away
from the point of origin
• Deep pain and some visceral pain are referred to other areas
• Superficial pain is not referred
• Most common areas of referred pain include: heart, esophagus, kidneys, stomach,
colon, appendix, gallbladder, stomach, ureters (e.g., pain from a myocardial
infarction has referred pain to the left arm, neck and chest)
Chronic Pain Syndrome
(CPS)
• Different than chronic pain
• Combination of the original pain and the secondary
complications that are making the pain worse
Chronic Pain Syndrome: CPS
PAIN
inactivity
work
issues
altered
social
life
family

M5_Anatomy-and-Physiology-of-Pain.p for pharmacy students ptx

  • 2. Learning Objectives • Gain insight into of the anatomy and physiology of pain • Recognize terminology • Identify the body’s physiological response to pain • Recognize the effects of pain on the different body systems • Apply knowledge to assess and treat pain
  • 3. Pain THE TEACHING: • Medically - pain is a symptom of an underlying condition THE MISSION: • Find the source of pain • Holistically treat the pain THE GOAL: • Return to a realistic, productive life “An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage.”
  • 4. The Purpose of Pain 1. Prevents serious injury • A light touch to something hot forces a quick reaction before serious injury occurs 2. Teaches avoidance • A painful activity teaches what not to repeat or when to seek help 3. Prevents permanent damage • Joint pain limits activity • Surgery requires down time for healing
  • 5. The Pain Roadmap Spinal Cord Brain Ascending Pathways Descending Pathways Peripheral Nerves • Pain sensation involves a series of complex interactions between peripheral nerves and the central nervous system • Pain is a dynamic, bidirectional process • Multiple areas of the nervous system help process pain signals • Normal and pathologic processes underlie pain mechanisms
  • 6. The Origin of Pain Pain Origin Somatic or Cutaneous Pain • Arises from nociceptive receptors in the skin and mucous membranes • Superficial pain • Feels like sharp, burning, pricking and is constant • Fast or slow onset Deep Somatic Pain • Stems from tendons, muscles, joints, periosteum and blood vessels Visceral Pain • Originates from internal organs: pelvis, abdomen, chest and intestines • Activates nociceptors of the viscera (internal organs in main cavities of the body) • Poorly localized and is an achy and dull sensation • Visceral structures are highly sensitive to stretching, ischemia and inflammation but insensitive to other stimuli that normally provoke pain Psychogenic Pain • Individuals “feel” pain but cause is emotional rather than physical
  • 7. The Process of Pain Physiology • Pain sensation is modulated by two types of neurotransmitters or neurochemicals: oNeurochemicals that excite pain or try to initiate pain oNeurochemicals that inhibit or try to stop the pain • Pain sensation is composed of four basic processes: oTransduction oTransmission oModulation oPerception
  • 8. The Process of Pain Physiology Process Action Transduction • Processes by which tissue-damaging stimuli activate nerve endings • Three types of stimuli can activate pain receptors in peripheral tissues: mechanical, heat, chemical • Pain stimuli is converted to energy • Electrical energy is known as “transduction” • Stimulus sends an impulse across the peripheral nerve fibers known as the nociceptor never fibers Transmission • Nociceptive message is transmitted to the central nervous system (CNS) • A delta fibers send sharp, localized and distinct sensations • C fibers relay impulses that are poorly localized, burning and persistent • This is the route by which the CNS is informed of impending or actual tissue damage Modulation • Natural inhibition or modulation of pain by the body • Inhibitory neurotransmitters like endogenous opioids (enkephalins, dynorphin and endorphins) that work to hinder pain transmission Perception • Person is aware of the pain • Somatosensory cortex identifies the location and intensity of the pain • Person unfolds a complex reaction – physiological and behavioral
  • 9. The Transmission of Pain: Afferent Axons Nerve Fibers Involved in Transmission of Pain A – Alpha Fibers muscle sense Diameter: 13-20 um Speed: 80-120 m/s C - Fibers pain/temperature/itch  Small  Unmyelinated  Very slow conducting  Respond to all types of noxious stimuli  Transmit prolonged, dull pain  Require high intensity stimuli to trigger response  Diameter: . – . um  Speed: . – . m/s A - Beta Fibers touch A - Delta Fibers pain/ temperature  Small  Lightly myelinated  Slow conducting  Respond to heat, pressure, cooling and chemicals  Sharp sensation of pain  Diameter: 1-5 um  Speed: 5-35 m/s  Large  Myelinated  Fast conducting  Low stimulation threshold  Respond to light touch  Diameter: 6-12 um  Speed: 35-75 m/s PRIMARY AFFERENT AXONS
  • 10. The Transmission of Pain: Timing • The thickness of a nerve fiber correlates directly to the speed with which information travels • The thicker the nerve fiber, the faster information travels • A-alpha, A-beta and A-delta nerve fibers are insulated with a protective covering called the myelin sheath, which helps with nerve conductivity • C nerve fibers are unmyelinated • A-delta and C fibers are the main fibers responsible for the transmission of pain, however new studies suggest A-beta fibers may have an important role to play in the diagnosis and treatment of pain Fast Pain Slow Pain • Transmitted by the A-delta nerve fibers at a velocity of 6-30 m/second • Felt about 0.1 seconds after a pain stimulus is applied • Pin prick, cutting or burning of skin • Caused by mechanical or thermal stimuli • Fast, sharp pain is not felt in most deeper tissues • Neurotransmitter released – glutamate • Transmission route: Neo-spinothalamic tract • Transmitted by the C-nerve fibers at a velocity of 0.5-2 m/second • Begins after 1 second or more and may range from seconds to minutes • Slow, burning, aching, throbbing, nauseous pain and chronic pain • Associated with tissue destruction • Caused mainly by chemical stimuli Neurotransmitter released – Substance P • Transmission route: Paleo-spinothalamic tract
  • 11. Transmission of Pain: Pull it Together Peripheral Sensory Nerve Spinal Cord Thalamus Cortex Pain! PAG Periaqueductal Gray Matter C A-delta Afferent neurons Modulation Transduction Perception • Serotonin • Endorphins • Enkephalins • Dynorphin Neurochemical Pain Inhibitors Descending Inhibition • Epinephrine • Cortisol • ACTH Neurochemical Pain Initiators • Glutamate – Central • Substance P – Central • Bradykinin - Peripheral • Prostaglandins - Peripheral Transmission
  • 12. Breakout of Pain CO’s CURE Module Five
  • 13. Acute Pain • Occurs in response to injury or illness • Responds well to interventions • Resolves well as healing proceeds • Short-lived • Less than three months • Often accompanied by sympathetic nervous system arousal • Adaptive pain response • Helpful pain response, which produces a behavior that promotes healing Chronic Pain • Multiple underlying mechanisms • Requires multi-modal and interdisciplinary treatment approaches • Pain that persists beyond the “normal” time expected to heal • Longer than three months • Changes in both peripheral and central nervous system processing • If acute pain is not managed well will move into the chronic phase Acute Pain vs. Chronic Pain
  • 14. Acute Pain vs. Chronic Pain Nociceptive Pain ACUTE Neuropathic Pain CHRONIC Nociplastic Pain TYPICAL CHRONIC
  • 15. Acute Pain: Nociceptive What is nociceptive pain? • Normal response to an injury of tissues • Most common type of pain What are nociceptors? • Nerves that detect or find noxious stimuli What is nociception? • Process whereby signals are sent to the brain by nociceptor receptors What is the cause of nociceptive pain? • Injury to body tissue to the skin, muscle and bones Examples: • Postoperative pain, bruises, burns, fractures, overused joints • Patients will present with dull, heavy, aching pain that spreads over a wide area
  • 16. Chronic Pain: Neuropathic What is neuropathic pain? • Chronic pain lasts more than six-months What is the cause of neuropathic pain? • Pain caused by a primary lesion or disease in the somatosensory nervous system causing varying degrees of pain sensations What is some the cause of neuropathic pain? • Nerve damage due to some type of a viral infection or a disease involving the central or peripheral nervous system (neuralgias) Examples: • Arthritis, migraines, shingles, multiple sclerosis, shingles • Patients will present with a variety of symptoms from numbness to burning to stinging, pins and needles and pricking sensations
  • 17. Chronic Pain: Nociplastic What is nociplastic pain? • Nonnociceptive and nonneuropathic pain • Inflammatory response How does nociplastic pain work? • Activation and sensitization of nociceptive pain pathway by a variety of mediators released at a site of tissue What causes nociplastic pain? • Abnormal processing in the central nervous system, however the reason for this abnormality is generally unknown Examples: • Fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome • Patients will present with a variety of symptoms seen in both acute and chronic pain patients
  • 18. Mixed Pain What is mixed pain? • Mixed pain share common clinical characteristics of all three types of pain • nociceptive, neuropathic and nociplastic Potential Examples: • Sciatica, cancer pain, lumbar spinal stenosis
  • 19. Other Types of Pain Type of Pain Elements of the Pain Breakthrough Pain • Pain is intermittent, transitory and an increase in pain occurs at a greater intensity • Usually lasts from minutes to hours and can interfere with functioning and quality of life (e.g., neuropathic pain and lower back pain) Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) • Pain condition that most often affects one limb (arm, leg, hand or foot) usually after an injury • CRPS is believed to be caused by damage to, or malfunction of, the peripheral and central nervous system Phantom Limb Pain • Pain in the absence of a limb Referred Pain • Pain sensation produced in some part of the body is felt in other structures away from the point of origin • Deep pain and some visceral pain are referred to other areas • Superficial pain is not referred • Most common areas of referred pain include: heart, esophagus, kidneys, stomach, colon, appendix, gallbladder, stomach, ureters (e.g., pain from a myocardial infarction has referred pain to the left arm, neck and chest) Chronic Pain Syndrome (CPS) • Different than chronic pain • Combination of the original pain and the secondary complications that are making the pain worse

Editor's Notes

  1. Objectives
  2. 1. https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/5/7/eaaw1297 Slowly conducting, myelinated nociceptors in the human radial nerve (39) show a greater specificity for mechanical stimulation relative to unmyelinated nociceptors, which are often polymodal, an observation that is consistent with other species (13, 36). In the mouse, for instance, there are myelinated nociceptors that respond specifically to high-threshold mechanical stimulation (41) including hair pulling (40); in our sample, the receptive fields of A-HTMRs lacked visible hairs, and we were thus not able to test whether they responded to hair pulling. By implication, the ultrafast A-HTMRs in humans may be highly specific for mechanical stimulation (pure mechano-nociceptors), and we have no observation to the contrary. However, the human A-HTMR population may consist of subpopulations distinguished not only by differences in conduction velocities but also by their response properties. This needs to be systematically tested in a larger population.
