Question
Why is it preferable to start taking morphine before an operation instead of waiting until later?
Expert Solution
Step 1
A neuron’s synaptic receptors can be enhanced by a bombardment of stimuli, making them react quite strongly to the same stimulus in the future. This system relies on learning and memory. The pain stimulates the same system. As a result, a bombardment of painful stimuli amplifies the cells’ perception of pain, making them more receptive to comparable stimulation in the future. As a result, limiting pain from the outset can assist in preventing chronic pain.
