Abstract Neuropathic pain, arising from lesions of the somatosensory nervous system, presents with diverse symptoms including ongoing pain, paroxysmal pain, and provoked pain, usually accompanied by sensory deficits. Understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms behind these symptoms is crucial for targeted treatment strategies. Neurophysiological techniques such as nerve conduction studies, reflexes, and evoked potentials help elucidate these mechanisms by assessing large myelinated non-nociceptive fibres and small nociceptive fibres. This argumentative review highlights the importance of tailored neurophysiological assessments for improving our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms behind neuropathic pain symptoms. |
