Pain management is a wide branch of medical study, and it can include a complete range of different therapies for those suffering from pain. Since pain can come from many parts of the body for different reasons, the solutions will differ greatly. Some doctors will prescribe pain medication to their patients, but in recent years, there has been a push to explore more medication-free pain management options, such as physical therapy, surgery, and even acupuncture and other alternative therapies.

There are different mechanisms that modify or modulate a pain signal along its pathway. Pain modulation occurs peripherally or centrally at the level of the spinal cord or supraspinal structures. Sensitization of the receptors can lead to hyperalgesia. Peripheral hyperalgesia can be primary or secondary. Sensitization can also occur centrally due to segmental and spinal cord mechanisms leading to facilitation of transmission of the pain signal. Central hypersensitization is commonly referred to as the “Wind-up” phenomenon. Changes in neurochemistry of the dorsal horn due to repetitive stimulation as well as recruitment of non-neuronal cells, such as astrocytes and microglial cells, are believed to play an important role in central sensitization. Inhibition occurs at both spinal and supraspinal levels due to different mechanisms. Gate control theory, concomitant release of inhibitory neurotransmitters, and descending inhibitory pathways are different mechanisms that lead to inhibition.
