Definitions

  • neuropathic pain There are various methods for classifying pain, one of which is the classification based on the cause, and it is divided into nociceptive pain, neuropathic pain, and psychogenic pain. Other categories include, for example, chronic pain and acute pain. Neuropathic pain is a general term for pain caused by neuropathy.
  • Neuropathic pain is generally defined as "pain caused by lesions or disorders of the somatic sensory nervous system” and lesions or disorders are present in any of the nociceptive signaling pathways from the peripheral nerves to the cerebral. It is known that it occurs when the disease occurs (Non-Patent Document 1).
  • Neuropathic pain is broadly divided into peripheral neuropathic pain and central neuropathic pain depending on the site of nerve injury, and the causes are nutritional metabolic, traumatic, ischemic, addictive, hereditary, and infectious diseases. , Compression / strangulation, immunity, neoplastic, degenerative diseases, etc. are known.
  • Neuropathic pain includes Post-Tracic Neuralgia (PHN), Post-traumatic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain, Diabetic Neuropathic Pain (Diabetic Neuro) Trigeminal Neuropathic Pain (TGN), post-spine injury pain (Neuropathic Pain After Spinal Code Industry), chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathic pain (Chemotherapy-Induced Nipla) It is known (Non-Pain Document 1).
  • Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy is a general term for various peripheral neuropathy found in diabetic patients, and is a peripheral neuropathy caused by insufficient insulin action or chronic hyperglycemic state.
