  2. Neuropathic pain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuropathic_pain

    Neuropathic pain is pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system. [ 2 ][ 3 ] Neuropathic pain may be associated with abnormal sensations called dysesthesia or pain from normally non-painful stimuli (allodynia). It may have continuous and/or episodic (paroxysmal) components. The latter resemble stabbings or electric shocks.

  3. Neurogenic claudication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenic_claudication

    Neurogenic claudication (NC), also known as pseudoclaudication, is the most common symptom of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) and describes intermittent leg pain from impingement of the nerves emanating from the spinal cord. [1][2] Neurogenic means that the problem originates within the nervous system. Claudication, from Latin claudicare 'to limp ...

  4. Peripheral neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_neuropathy

    Peripheral neuropathy may be classified according to the number and distribution of nerves affected (mononeuropathy, mononeuritis multiplex, or polyneuropathy), the type of nerve fiber predominantly affected (motor, sensory, autonomic), or the process affecting the nerves; e.g., inflammation (), compression (compression neuropathy), chemotherapy (chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy).

  5. Central pain syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_pain_syndrome

    Neurology. Central pain syndrome, also known as central neuropathic pain, [1] is a neurological condition consisting of constant moderate to severe pain due to damage to the central nervous system (CNS) which causes a sensitization of the pain system. [2][3] The extent of pain and the areas affected are related to the cause of the injury. [4]

  6. Neurogenic inflammation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenic_inflammation

    Magnesium deficiency causes neurogenic inflammation in a rat model. Researchers have theorized that since substance P which appears at day five of induced magnesium deficiency, is known to stimulate in turn the production of other inflammatory cytokines including IL-1, Interleukin 6 (IL-6), and TNF-alpha (TNFα), which begin a sharp rise at day 12, substance P is a key in the path from ...

  7. Neuropathic arthropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuropathic_arthropathy

    Rheumatology. Neuropathic arthropathy (or neuropathic osteoarthropathy), also known as Charcot joint (often Charcot foot) after the first to describe it, Jean-Martin Charcot, refers to progressive degeneration of a weight-bearing joint, a process marked by bony destruction, bone resorption, and eventual deformity due to loss of sensation.

  8. Complex regional pain syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_regional_pain_syndrome

    Complex regional pain syndrome is a multifactorial disorder with clinical features of neurogenic inflammation (inflammation mediated by nerve cells), nociceptive sensitisation (which causes extreme sensitivity or allodynia), vasomotor dysfunction (blood flow problems which cause swelling and discolouration) and maladaptive neuroplasticity ...

  9. Trigeminal neuralgia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigeminal_neuralgia

    Trigeminal neuralgia (TN or TGN), also called Fothergill disease, tic douloureux, trifacial neuralgia, or suicide disease, is a long-term pain disorder that affects the trigeminal nerve, [7][1] the nerve responsible for sensation in the face and motor functions such as biting and chewing. It is a form of neuropathic pain. [8]
