Abstract
Pain can be classified into nociceptive (tissue damage) and neuropathic (nerve damage, neurogenic). Nerve pain is by definition neuropathic pain, but it may be accompanied by nociceptive pain, depending on the cause, the best example being a herniated intervertebral disc resulting in a radicular syndrome. Nerve pain can also be due to inflammation or trauma.
