41. About chemical neurolytic nerve blocks, which one of following statements is wrong? (A) Phenol or ethanol is usually used for chemical denervation. (B) The duration of these blocks is often disappointingly brief. (C) They may induce deafferentation-neuropathic type pain.

43. The innervation of deep somatic tissue like muscle and joint is quite complex. Which of the following description is not appropriate? (A) The nociceptors are predominantly activated by non-physiological stimuli which may cause damage to the structures (e.g. overload, twisting, strong pressure, ischemic contraction).

(C) Descending inhibition is enhanced during chronic inflammation but seems to be normalized during acute inflammation. (D) Both primary afferent fibers as well as sympathetic reflexes may aggravate inflammatory lesions.

(D) Patients with cervical SCI are at risk of developing CRPS affecting upper limbs. (E) Below-level neuropathic pain is also referred to deafferentation pain.
