Question
Chapter 19, Problem 2CR
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The differences between visceral nociceptors and somatic nociceptors.
Introduction:
Nociceptors are the receptors activated in response to pain. Somatic nociceptors can sense the pain of skin and visceral nociceptors can trigger response to the pain of internal organs.
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The way by which visceral nociceptors and somatic nociceptors are related to the phenomenon known as “referred pain”.
Introduction:
Referred pain is also known by the name as reflective pain. The pain is felt at the other location rather than the site of injury. Visceral nociceptors and somatic nociceptors both are involved in the phenomena of referred pain
