Deep somatic pain sits in contrast to the less common cutaneous and neuropathic pain. It is otherwise known as musculoskeletal pain as it appears to arise in the deeper tissues of the muscles, bones, and joints. The neurophysiology of deep somatic pain is likely to be different to cutaneous and neuropathic pain.
A related concept is somatic referred pain, which stands in distinction to visceral referred pain, and indicates that the somatic tissues are the source of pain referral.
