Vasomotor, sudomotor & trophic changes can occur specifically in CAUSALGIA

47
Q

T/F:

Usual symptoms of peripheral neurogenic pain are hypoesthesia, anesthesia, weakness, paresthesia, dysesthesia, & pain

A

True

48
Q

Nerves can be a source of pain d/t []
(sensory innervation of nerve) & []
(sensitive to movement or stretch)

A

Nerves can be a source of pain d/t nervi nervorum
(sensory innervation of nerve) & neural connective tissue
(sensitive to movement or stretch)

49
Q

T/F

Peripheral neurogenic pain can extend beyond the initial nerve injury through processes of peripheral sensitization & glial cells releasing growth factors & other substances acting on the immune system

A

True

50
Q

True or False: Causalgia, characterized by severe aching pain in a limb resulting from a peripheral nerve injury, is rare, and severe cases can be referred to as Major Causalgia.

A

False

Causalgia, characterized by** severe burning pain in a limb**

Q

Modified T/F

A. Hyperalgesia & allodynia should not coincide in central neurogenic pain
B. Central neurogenic pain involves descending facilitation

A

FT

Hyperalgesia & allodynia may coincide

53
Q

Modified T/F

A. In central neurogenic pain, glia and astrocytes play a role in altering synaptic connections forming between General Somatic Afferents (GSA) and pain fibers.
B. Central neurogenic pain, often associated with conditions like fibromyalgia (FM), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and burnout, involves dysregulation of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) Axis.
