What is NEUROPATHIC PAIN? What does NEUROPATHIC PAIN mean? NEUROPATHIC PAIN meaning – NEUROPATHIC PAIN definition – NEUROPATHIC PAIN explanation.

Neuropathic pain is pain caused by damage or disease affecting the somatosensory nervous system. Neuropathic pain may be associated with abnormal sensations called dysesthesia or pain from normally non-painful stimuli (allodynia). It may have continuous and/or episodic (paroxysmal) components. The latter resemble stabbings or electric shocks. Common qualities include burning or coldness, “pins and needles” sensations, numbness and itching.
Up to 7% to 8% of the European population is affected, and in 5% of persons it may be severe. Neuropathic pain may result from disorders of the peripheral nervous system or the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). Thus, neuropathic pain may be divided into peripheral neuropathic pain, central neuropathic pain, or mixed (peripheral and central) neuropathic pain.
Central neuropathic pain is found in spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, and some strokes. Aside from diabetes (see diabetic neuropathy) and other metabolic conditions, the common causes of painful peripheral neuropathies are herpes zoster infection, HIV-related neuropathies, nutritional deficiencies, toxins, remote manifestations of malignancies, immune mediated disorders and physical trauma to a nerve trunk. Neuropathic pain is common in cancer as a direct result of cancer on peripheral nerves (e.g., compression by a tumor), or as a side effect of chemotherapy (chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy), radiation injury or surgery.
The history of pain management can be traced back to ancient times. Galen also suggested nerve tissue as the transferring route of pain to the brain through the invisible psychic pneuma. The idea of origination of pain from the nerve itself, without any exciting pathology in other organs is presented by medieval medical scholars such as Rhazes, Haly Abbas and Avicenna. They named this type of pain specifically as “vaja al asab” , described its numbness, tingling and needling quality, discussed its etiology and the differentinting characteristics. The description of neuralgia was made by John Fothergill (1712-1780). In an medical article entitled “Clinical Lecture on Lead Neuropathy” published in 1924 the word “Neuropathy” was used for the first time by Gordon.
As a person living with chronic pain you may find yourself thinking about difficult questions about the meaning of your pain and suffering:
-Why am I having to deal with all this pain?
-Am I being punished?
-What’s the point of living if I must put up with pain and suffering for the rest of my life?
These questions can be tied to even more fundamental questions about meaning that have been traditionally addressed by religion & spirituality — some call them ‘questions of ultimate meaning’:
-Does our existence have any inherent meaning?
-Why is there such suffering in this life?
-Is this the only life we live, or are there past lives and futures ones?
-Is there life after death? Is there a higher power? (Or to paraphrase Shakespeare) Is there a divinity that shapes our ends?
-If there is a higher power, a caring universe, or a loving god, why don’t they seem to care about me?
This is NOT a webinar about religion. In this two-part series, we will explore the innate spirituality of everyday life, how that may have changed since you began living with chronic pain, and how you may want to reframe your concept of spirituality going forward. Everyone is invited. No one is excluded. No spirituality is ‘better’ than another. This webinar series, in addition to trying to answer the questions mentioned above, also asks two important questions of relevance to spirituality & chronic pain: “What story do you live in?” And “how does the story you live in help you to live better with your pain?”

Disidentification (The Practice of Non-Attachment)
How to Heal the Emotional Body
No one wakes up in the morning and says, “my goal is to have a really painful day”. Most people spend literally their whole life trying to escape and avoid pain. Take a look at our lives. While there are some things we do specifically because we are following our joy, the bulk of things we do in our life, we do specifically to avoid and escape pain. This dysfunctional relationship with pain, does not serve us. In this episode, Teal explains the meaning of pain and helps us to improve our relationship with it.
