This article provides an overview of the physiological mechanisms of pain and the important pain pathways. We will discuss pain receptors, transmission of pain signals to the spinal cord and pain pathways within the spinal cord. We will also look at how pain can be modulated at different levels along the pathway.

Introduction. Pain is a vital function of the nervous system in providing the body with a warning of potential or actual injury. It is both a sensory and emotional experience, affected by psychological factors such as past experiences, beliefs about pain, fear or anxiety.
THE CLASSIC PAIN PATHWAY. The pain pathway, as classically understood, consists of a three-neuron chain that transmits pain signals from the periphery to the cerebral cortex.
