Excerpt from Wood's Medical and Surgical Monographs, Vol. 5 The word "neuralgia" means simply "nerve pain" such pain may be due to actual disease of a nerve trunk, by which its fibres are irritated, or it may occur without any organic lesion. It is true that the absence of such morbid change cannot often be proved by actual microscopical examination, but the transient character of the pain, and its migration from one part to another, frequently afford strong confirmation of the opinion that, in a large number of the cases of local nerve pain, the symptoms are not due to actual organic change. Two classes of neuralgias have been distinguished - "symptomatic," in which the pain is a symptom of organic disease of the nerves, and "idiopathic," in which the malady, in the first instance, at least, consists only in functional disturbance. Both of these forms have been called "neuralgia" by some writers. By others, however, the term is restricted to the idiopathic class, and this seems to be the only logical course. It is manifestly unreasonable to describe inflammation of nerves as "neuralgia" when it causes much pain and few other symptoms, and as "neuritis" when other symptoms predominate over pain. But the distinction of the two forms of nerve pain is often very difficult in practice. In some forms described as neuralgia, the pain has certainly been generally the result of neuritis. This is the case, for instance, with sciatica, which is generally an inflammation of the nerve. Yet, not only has the common form of sciatica been described as a neuralgia, but its symptoms have been allowed to influence the description of neuralgia in general.
