  2. Hypothalamospinal tract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypothalamospinal_tract

    The hypothalamospinal tract is an unmyelinated [1] non-decussated [2] descending nerve tract that arises in the hypothalamus and projects to the brainstem and spinal cord to synapse with pre-ganglionic autonomic (both sympathetic and parasympathetic) neurons. The direct autonomic projections of the hypothalamospinal tract represent a minority ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenic_claudication

    [25] [26] By reducing inflammation, less pressure is put on the nerve roots, decreasing pain, and providing relief for NC patients. [27] Gabapentin aims to reduce pain and provide relief by altering the normal functioning of neurotransmitters that induce a sensation of pain and discomfort. [ 28 ]

  4. Lateral medullary syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_medullary_syndrome

    Lateral medullary syndrome is a neurological disorder causing a range of symptoms due to ischemia in the lateral part of the medulla oblongata in the brainstem. The ischemia is a result of a blockage most commonly in the vertebral artery or the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. [1] Lateral medullary syndrome is also called Wallenberg's ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dejerine–Roussy_syndrome

    Dejerine–Roussy syndrome or thalamic pain syndrome is a condition developed after a thalamic stroke, a stroke causing damage to the thalamus. [1] Ischemic strokes and hemorrhagic strokes can cause lesioning in the thalamus. [citation needed] As initial stroke symptoms (numbness and tingling) dissipate, an imbalance in sensation causes these ...

  6. Nerve decompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_decompression

    Nerve decompression. A nerve decompression is a neurosurgical procedure to relieve chronic, direct pressure on a nerve to treat nerve entrapment, a pain syndrome characterized by severe chronic pain and muscle weakness. In this way a nerve decompression targets the underlying pathophysiology of the syndrome and is considered a first-line ...

  7. Spinoreticular tract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinoreticular_tract

    Spinoreticular tract. The spinoreticular tract (also paleospinothalamic pathway, or indirect pathway of the anterolateral system) is a partially decussating (crossed-over) four-neuron sensory pathway of the central nervous system. The tract transmits slow nociceptive/pain information (but thermal, and crude touch information as well) from the ...

  8. Nerve compression syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_compression_syndrome

    Nerve compression syndrome, or compression neuropathy, or nerve entrapment syndrome, is a medical condition caused by chronic, direct pressure on a peripheral nerve. [1] It is known colloquially as a trapped nerve, though this may also refer to nerve root compression (by a herniated disc, for example). Its symptoms include pain, tingling ...

  9. Occipital neuralgia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occipital_neuralgia

    Occipital neuralgia. Occipital neuralgia (ON) is a painful condition affecting the posterior head in the distributions of the greater occipital nerve (GON), lesser occipital nerve (LON), third occipital nerve (TON), or a combination of the three. It is paroxysmal, lasting from seconds to minutes, and often consists of lancinating pain that ...
