there are pain receptors in the skin, when we get any pain stimulus it pass through this receptors and goes to the CNS.
the stimulus pass through the dorsal nerve root to the marginal nucleus and substenti gelatinosa of Rolando which are the nucleus of the spinal cord.
from there the pain changes its side and goes to the other side and travel through the lateral spinothalamic tract(paleospinothalamic tract and neospinothalamic tract)
by this pathway it reaches to the higher centers of brain like limbic system, thalamus and to the paraqidactal gray matter.
from these nucleus it radiates to the sensory cortex,
this is how we feel the pain.

What is the role of the pain pathway in transmitting and processing signals related to physical discomfort within the human body?
The pain pathway is responsible for transmitting signals related to physical discomfort from the body to the brain for processing. It involves specialized nerve fibers that carry pain signals to the spinal cord and then to the brain, where they are interpreted as pain. This pathway helps the body respond to potential harm and protect itself from further injury.
If you accidentally step on a tack with your bare foot the pathway that the nerve impulse takes from your foot to your leg is called?
The pathway that the nerve impulse takes from your foot to your leg is called the sensory pathway. This pathway includes sensory neurons that carry signals from the foot to the spinal cord and then to the brain, where the sensation of pain is perceived and a motor response is initiated to move away from the tack.
What is the pathway of an impulse in a reflex arc?
Sensory receptor, sensory neuron, interneuron, motor neuron, and muscle.
What is the pathway for crude pain?
Crude pain is transmitted via A-delta and C fibers to the spinal cord and then ascends to the brainstem and thalamus. From the thalamus, the pain signals are projected to the somatosensory cortex for processing and perception.
If you are stung by a bee you don't feel any pain until the impulse reaches your?
When stung by a bee a person will not feel any pain until the impulse reaches their brain. The brain is the center of a humans nervous system.
Does sensory neurons for touch also carries pain impulses?
Yes, sensory neurons for touch can also carry pain impulses when there is tissue damage or injury. These neurons are capable of responding to various stimuli, including pain signals, and transmit this information to the brain for processing.
How does the four major elements of a simple nervous pathway function during pain withdrawal reflex?
During a pain withdrawal reflex impulses are sent through different nerves and to the spinal cord. This reflex does not make it to the brain but only to the spinal cord. We call this involuntary action because we dont control reflexes. The sensory neurons are the first to recieve the impulse, then they travel to the interneurons, or associative neurons, and then they go to the motor neurons which carries the impulse to the central nervous system. Then the effector is the response, so in this case your musscle will contract.
If you accidentally step on a tack with your bare foot the pathway that the nerve impulse takes from your foot to your leg is called a reflex arc.?
Yes, that's correct! When you step on a tack, sensory receptors in your foot detect the pain and send a nerve impulse through sensory neurons to the spinal cord. This impulse then travels to motor neurons, which activate the muscles in your leg to quickly withdraw your foot from the painful stimulus. This entire process, known as a reflex arc, occurs rapidly and often without conscious thought to protect your body from injury.
If you are stung by a bee you don't feel any pain until the impulse reaches your what?
brainstem
What is any drug that inhibits trans mission of sensory impulse at a synapse called?
Pain medication
What is the impulse conduction through a reflex arc?
nociceptors and mechanoreceptors (respond to touch, temp and pain)
Medial and lateral pain system in pain processing?
Fast pain messages travel along the lateral pain system. Slower pain messages travel along the medial pain system.
