Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Jack and John discuss the concept of neuropathic pain,
specifically pain associated with nerve root compression. They explore
the different types of neuropathic pain and the confusion surrounding
its classification. They also discuss the role of peripheral tissue in
generating and influencing pain, as well as the potential for central
sensitization. The hosts propose the idea of classifying neuropathic
pain based on the affected tissue and suggest that addressing peripheral
tissue may have an impact on centrally driven pain. They emphasize the
need for further research and understanding in this area.
