PATHOPHYSIOLOGY of Bone Pain

Stimulation of specialized pain-sensitive nerve fibres (nociceptors) that innervate bone tissue leads to the sensation of bone pain.
Bone pain originates from both the periosteum and the bone marrow which relay nociceptivesignals to the brain creating the sensation of pain. Bone tissue is innervated by both myelinated (A beta and A delta fiber) and unmyelinated (C fibre) sensory neurons.
In combination, they can provide an initial burst of pain, initiated by the faster-myelinated fibres, followed by a slower and longer-lasting dull pain initiated by unmyelinated fibres.
Nociceptors responsible for bone pain can be activated via several mechanisms including deterioration of surrounding tissue, bone destruction and physical stress which shears the bone, vascular, muscle, and nervous tissue.
