[4] Although all nerve fibers may be injured by these processes, small myelinated and unmyelinated fibers that conduct pain and temperature information are most affected.
Because some forms of sensory stimulation and low-level muscle activation fail to inhibit edema formation and because stimulus characteristics we have used are unlikely to depolarize a substantial proportion of small-diameter myelinated or unmyelinated fibers (eg, autonomic and nociceptive fibers), we speculate that whatever HVPC is doing to curb edema is not neuronally based.
