PAIN AND ITS MANAGEMENT
D. C. MIKULECKY
PROFESSOR OF PHYSIOLOGY
SOMATOSENSORY
CORTEX
SOMATOTOPIC ORGANIZATION
MORE AREA TAKEN BY SENSITIVE
REGIONS (GREATER RECEPTOR DENSITYSMALLER RECEPTIVE FIELDS)
CELLS RESPONDING TO ONE TYPE OF
SENSATION IN VERTICLE COLUMNS(FOR
EXAMPLE..PACINIAN CORPUSCLES IN A
FINGERTIP)
THE ANTEROLATERAL PAIN AND
TEMPERATURE PATHWAY
SENSORY NEURONS SYNAPSE IN SUBSTANTIA
GELATINOSA
SECONDARY NEURONS CROSS MIDLINE AND
ASCEND IN ATEROLATERAL COLUMN
BRANCHES GO TO THE RETICULAR FORMATION
TERMINATE IN VENTROBASAL NUCLEUS OF
THALMUS
TERTIARY NEURONS GO TO SENSORY CORTEX
THE ANTEROLATERAL

LIGHTLY
MYELINATED:
TOUCH,
PRESSURE, AND
PAIN
UNMYELINATED:
PAIN AND
TEMPERATURE
FAST PAIN
 OCCURS IN ABOUT 0.1 SECONDS
 SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION:SHARP, ACUTE, ELECTRIC
OR PRICKING
 A FIBERS SYNAPSE ON CELLS IN LAMINA I (LAMINA
MARGINALIS) IN THE DORSAL HORNS
 SECONDARY NEURONS CROSS AND TRAVEL THROUGH
THE ANTEROLATERAL PATHWAY TO THE VENTROBASAL
COMPLEX OF THE THALAMUS
 TERTIARY NEURONS GO TO THE PRIMARY SENSORY

SLOW PAIN
OCCURS AFTER A SECOND OR MORE
OFTEN ASSOCIATED WITH TISSUE
DESTRUCTION
SUBJECTIVELY DESCRIBED AS BURNING,
ACHING,THROBBING, NAUSEOUS, OR CHRONIC
C FIBERS WHICH SYNAPSE IN THE

MECHANICAL, CHEMICAL
AND THERMAL PAIN
FAST PAIN IS GENERALLY MECHANICAL OR
THERMAL
SLOW PAIN CAN BE ALL THREE
CHEMICAL PAIN RECEPTORS: BRADYKININ,
SEROTONIN, HISTAMINE, POTASSIUM IONS,
ACIDS, ACETYL CHOLINE AND PROTEOLYTIC
ENZYMES
PROSTAGLANDINS ENHANCE PAIN SENSATION
BRAIN STRUCTURES AND PAIN
COMPLETE REMOVAL OF THE SENSORY
CORTEX DOES NOT DESTROY THE
ABILITY TO PERCIEVE PAIN
STIMULATION OF THE SENSORY CORTEX
EVOKES A SENSATION OF PAIN
PAIN CONTROL (ANALGESIA)

PAIN TRANSMISSION AND
INHIBITION
SUBSTANCE P IS THE
NEUROTRANSMITTER: BUILDS UP
SLOWLY IN THE JUNCTION AND IS
SLOWLY DESTROYED
PRESYNAPTIC INHIBITION BY
INHIBITORY NEURON BLOCKS THE
RELEASE OF SUBSTANCE P
(ENKEPHALIN)
THE BRAIN’S OPIATE
SYSTEM
OPIATE RECEPTORS EXIST IN MANY
CENTERS OF THE BRAIN, ESPECIALLY IN
THE ANALGESIA SYSTEM
AMONG THE NATURAL SUBSTANCES
WHICH ACTIVATE THESE RECEPTORS
ARE: ENDORPHINS, ENKEPHALINS, AND
MORPHINE
INHIBITION OF PAIN BY
TACTILE STIMULATION
STIMULATION OF LARGE SENSORY
FIBERS FOR TACTILE SENSATION
INHIBITS PAIN TRANSMISSION FOR
SAME REGION
RUBBING OFTEN EASES PAIN
LINAMENTS, OIL OF CLOVE, ETC.
POSSIBLE EXPLANATION FOR
ACUPUNCTURE?

STIMULATION OF LARGE SENSORY
NERVES
ELECTRODES IN SKIN OR SPINAL
IMPLANTS
INTRALAMINAR NUCLEUS OF THALAMUS
REFERED PAIN
VISCERAL PAIN FIBERS SYNAPSE ON
SAME SECONDARY NEURONS AS RECEIVE
PAIN FIBERS FROM SKIN

USUALLY ACCOMPANIED BY MOTOR
LOSS AS WELL
LESION ON RIGHT HALF
OF SPINAL CORD
LOSS OF PAIN SENSATION ON LEFT SIDE
BELOW LESION
LOSS OF TOUCH AND VIBRATION ON
RIGHT SIDE BELOW LESION
LOSS OF BOTH ON RIGHT SIDE AT SAME

 SELDOM DUE TO BRAIN DAMAGE
 NO SENSORY NERVES IN BRAIN LIKE THERE ARE
IN PERIPHERY
