What kind of pain comes from a gun shot to the abdomen?
Both somatic and visceral pain. The somatic pain would come from cutaneous receptors and visceral pain from the intestines.
Is the pain sensations arising from visceral organs caused by the stretching of tissues?
yes
Why might an individual experience the phenomenon known as rferred pain?
Visceral pain afferents travel along the same pathways as somatic pain fibers
What is Pain felt in organs is considered?
Pain felt in organs is considered visceral pain. This type of pain arises from the internal organs and is often described as a deep, aching, or cramping sensation. It can be more challenging to localize than somatic pain, which originates from the skin, muscles, or joints. Visceral pain can also be accompanied by autonomic responses, such as changes in heart rate or blood pressure.
What is the difference in parietal and visceral peritoneum?
The difference between these two pleura is that the parietal pleura is the outtermost covering of the lung which is adhered to the inner thoracic wall, while the visceral pleura is the lining which is directly adhered to the lung itself. The space between these two pleuras is know as the pleual cavity.
What is meant by noriceptive Pain example somatic and visceral?
Nociceptive means having to do with pain. So the phrase "nociceptive pain" is redundant. The body's nervous system has 2 kinds of nociceptive receptors--somatic and visceral. Visceral means having to do with the viscera, which are your hollow internal organs (such as the stomach and the intestines). Whereas somatic pain receptors are easily localized, visceral pain is difficult to pin down as to location. Thus, when you have pain on a particular finger, you know exactly which finger is hurting and where the pain is on the finger. But when you have something wrong with a part of your intestine, and it's the intestine on the right side of your abdomen, the pain is going to seem to be coming from the midline of your abdomen, not on the right side. An example is appendicitis, whose pain is typically felt in the midline until the inflammation reaches the abdominal wall (which is somatic), at which time the pain is felt on the right side of the abdomen.
How many different kinds of pain are there?
There are three different kinds of pain and possibly a fourth that would be a combination of the others. The types are somatic, neuropathic, and visceral.
Why might an individual experience the phenomenon known as referred pain?
Referred pain occurs when pain is felt in a different area of the body from its actual source. This phenomenon can happen because of the way nerves are wired and connected in the body. For example, when a nerve that supplies sensation to a particular area also receives input from a different area, confusion can occur, leading to the perception of pain in the second area.
Is it true or false pleurisy is pain in the visceral and parietal pleura in the thoracic cavity?
True. Pleurisy is inflammation of the pleura, the thin tissues that line the chest cavity and surround the lungs. This inflammation can cause pain in the thoracic cavity when the visceral and parietal pleura rub against each other during breathing.
Does straightening of the lordosis cause neck pain?
We are not sure. It might be the source of pain or it might be caused by muscle guarding from another pain source.
