Classifications of Pain
Somatic or Nociceptive Pain: This typically results from injury or inflammation of bodily tissues. Common causes include fractures, sprains, lacerations, burns, infections, tendonitis, or muscle contractures.
Neuropathic Pain: Often presenting as a burning, tingling, or “pins and needles” sensation, this type of chronic pain occurs due to nerve involvement. Examples include spinal canal stenosis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and infectious or toxic neuropathies.
Non-specific or Mixed Pain: This occurs when symptoms involve a combination of the above types or stem from an undetermined cause. Examples include certain headaches, herniated discs, oncological pain, and vasculitis.
