Pain Management: Arachnoiditis Font Size. A. A. A. Arachnoiditis is a pain disorder caused by the inflammation of the arachnoid, one of the membranes that surrounds and protects the nerves of the spinal cord. It is characterized by severe stinging, burning pain, and neurological problems.he most common symptom is pain, but arachnoiditis can also cause: 1  Tingling, numbness, or weakness in the legs. 2  Sensations that may feel like insects crawling on the skin or water trickling down the leg. 3  Severe shooting pain that can be similar to an electric shock sensation.

Overview Causes and Risk Factors. The exact cause of appendicitis is unknown, but it may result from an obstruction of the appendiceal lumen by feces (a hardened mass of feces often called a fecaloma or fecalith), seeds, foreign bodies, parasites, or tumors. Infections could also trigger appendicitis, resulting in distention and swelling of the tissue.

Pain management guide Causes of arachnoiditis. Inflammation of the arachnoid can lead to the formation of scar tissue and can cause the spinal nerves to stick together and malfunction. The arachnoid may become inflamed for one of the following reasons: Direct injury to the spine.

Overview Epididymitis is an inflammation of the coiled tube (epididymis) at the back of the testicle that stores and carries sperm. Males of any age can get epididymitis. Epididymitis is most often caused by a bacterial infection, including sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as gonorrhea or chlamydia.

Arachnoiditis Arachnoiditis can be caused by the compression of spinal stenosis associated with degenerative spondylolysthesis (see section on this website). When an individual experiences back pain in the L4-L5, degenerative spondylolysthesis can often be the condition leading to the inflammation.rachnoiditis is caused by a number of conditions. Arachnoiditis was more common in the 1970s and early 1980s when radiologists used an older type of oil based myelogram dye. This dye was used back then to visualize the spinal canal to look for canal compression and disc herniations.

Bacterial Infections Bacterial meningitis is the infection of the arachnoid membrane, subarachnoid space, and cerebrospinal fluid by bacteria. The subarachnoid space is bounded externally by the arachnoid membrane and internally by the pia, and dips into the brain along blood vessels in the perivascular (Virchow-Robin) spaces.acterial toxins cause neuronal apoptosis and cell wall lipopolysaccharide, released from bacteria, damages the blood brain barrier (BBB). Increased vascular permeability from BBB damage, in turn, causes cerebral edema, increased intracranial pressure, decreased cerebral perfusion, hypoxia, and neuronal necrosis.

Inflammation of the Testicle (Orchitis) Both bacteria and viruses can cause orchitis. Bacteria that commonly cause orchitis include Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, and Streptococcus. A prostate infection may occur in conjunction with orchitis. Epididymitis (inflammation of the tube on the back of the testicle) can lead to orchitis, as well.

Necrotizing Fasciitis (Soft Tissue Inflammation) Necrotizing fasciitis is most commonly caused by an infection with group A Streptococcus, commonly known as “flesh-eating bacteria.” This is the fastest moving form of the infection. When this infection is caused by other types of bacteria, it typically does not progress as quickly and is not quite as dangerous.everal types of bacteria cause necrotizing fasciitis. The most common and well-known type is group A Streptococcus. However, this is not the only type of bacteria that can cause this infection. Other causes include: 1  aeromonas hydrophila.

Epididymitis/Orchitis Causes Epididymitis/Orchitis Causes. Causes for Epididymitis and Orchitis. The most common cause for acute epididymitis and epididymo-orchitis is a bacterial infection that spreads from another area, usually the urinary tract (e.g., urethra, bladder). Sometimes, pain in the testicular area is the first sign of infection.

Spider bite Spider bite. For the urban legend, see The Spider Bite. A spider bite, also known as arachnidism, is an injury resulting from the bite of a spider. The effects of most bites are not serious. Most bites result in mild symptoms around the area of the bite. Rarely they may produce a necrotic skin wound or severe pain. Most spiders do not cause bites that are of importance.

Bacteria from a urinary tract or prostate infection might spread from the infected site to the epididymis. Also, viral infections, such as the mumps virus, can result in epididymitis.

A groin injury can cause epididymitis. Tuberculosis.

Epididymitis Things to remember. 1  Epididymitis is an infection that causes inflammation of the epididymis, which is a series of small tubes attached to the back of each testicle that collects and stores sperm. Most cases of epididymitis are caused by bacterial infection from a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmissible infection (STI) such as gonorrhoea or chlamydia.
