Pain as a result of injury, damage or dysfunction of the nerve fibers, especially in the peripheral or central nervous system is termed as neuropathic pain. The affected nerve fibers send incorrect signals to the pain centers, thus disrupting normal functioning of the nerves. This animation provides information about nociceptors--the nerves that respond to injury or damage to tissues, different types of neuropathic pain, causes, symptoms and treatment--with medication and invasive procedures.
