Detailed explanation-1: -Characteristics of Slow Pain: During slow pain, the body will face intense and unpleasant feelings. It is categorized under chronic, aching, nausea, burning, and throbbing pain. This type of pain can be found beneath the organ or any tissues, but commonly found in the skin. It is related to the damage of the tissue.
Detailed explanation-2: -Slow pain is also called burning, aching, throbbing, gnawing, nauseating or chronic pain. It is present in skin as well as deep tissues. The slow pain pathway is mainly stimulated by chemical stimuli (but also by mechanical and thermal) and carried by type C fibers at velocities between 0.5 and 2 m/sec.
Detailed explanation-3: -Sharp: When you feel a sudden, intense spike of pain, that qualifies as “sharp.” Sharp pain may also fit the descriptors cutting and shooting. Stabbing: Like sharp pain, stabbing pain occurs suddenly and intensely. However, stabbing pain may fade and reoccur many times.
Detailed explanation-4: -“Fast pain”, which goes away fairly quickly, comes from the stimulation and transmission of nerve impulses over A delta fibres, while “slow pain”, which persists longer, comes from stimulation and transmission over non-myelinated C fibres.
