Problem:
Answer the following questions:
Question: Is this due to pressure differentials in the surrounding tissue? (Is it possible to have a pinched nerve without compression of the surrounding tissues, and does this cause pain?)Justify your answer.
Question: What are the molecules/cell types involved in this process? Explain in detail.
Question: Is the pain dependent on the compression of axons from mechanosensitive or nociceptive neurons? Pleas suggest your views.
