duration, and cause.
(e.g. somatic, visceral, neuropathic).
(e.g. acute, chronic).
(e.g. caused by cancer.)

What Causes Pain To Occur? - ANSWER:When tissue damage activates nociceptors.
This damage can be due to heat, cold, injury (etc).
What Causes Pain To Occur? - ANSWER:When tissue damage activates nociceptors.

Nociceptors - ANSWER:Pain receptors.
Nociceptors - ANSWER:Pain receptors.
Where Does The Pain Signal Travel To From The Nociceptors? - ANSWER:The Spinal
Cord.
Where Does The Pain Signal Travel To From The Nociceptors? - ANSWER:The Spinal
Cord.
Which Fibers Carry Pain Signals From The Nociceptors To The Spinal Cord? -
ANSWER:A-Delta Fibers and C-Delta Fibers.
, Which Fibers Carry Pain Signals From The Nociceptors To The Spinal Cord? -
ANSWER:A-Delta Fibers and C-Delta Fibers.
Endogenous Analgesia System - ANSWER:CNS system used to relieve pain by
suppressing the pain signals from nociceptors.
Endogenous Analgesia System - ANSWER:CNS system used to relieve pain by
suppressing the pain signals from nociceptors.
Neuropeptides - ANSWER:Morphine-like elements that interact with receptors in
order to reduce pain.
(e.g. Endorphins
Enkephalins).
Neuropeptides - ANSWER:Morphine-like elements that interact with receptors in
order to reduce pain.
(e.g. Endorphins
Enkephalins).
How Exactly Does The EAS System Stop Pain? - ANSWER:It does so by releasing
morphine-like elements like endorphins and enkephalins that inhibit the
transmission of pain signals.
How Exactly Does The EAS System Stop Pain? - ANSWER:It does so by releasing
morphine-like elements like endorphins and enkephalins that inhibit the
transmission of pain signals.
Endorphins - ANSWER:Morphine-like neuropeptides that inhibit the transmission of
pain signals with neuroreceptors, and also induce a feeling of euphoria.
Endorphins - ANSWER:Morphine-like neuropeptides that inhibit the transmission of
pain signals with neuroreceptors, and also induce a feeling of euphoria.
Enkephalins - ANSWER:Morphine-like neuropeptides that stop the transmission of
pain signals in the spinal cord by interacting with the C nerve fibers.
Enkephalins - ANSWER:Morphine-like neuropeptides that stop the transmission of
pain signals in the spinal cord by interacting with the C nerve fibers.
How Exactly Do Opioids Stop Pain? - ANSWER:They inhibit the release of adenylate
cyclase, which stops the transmission of pain signals from nociceptors to the brain.
Also inhibit the production of pain and inflammation by prostaglandins and
leukotrines in tissues.
