Introduction[edit | edit source]
IASP definition:
"Increased pain from a stimulus that normally provokes pain."[1]
Hyperalgesia is a clinical term used to described the phenomenon of an increased pain response to a painful stimuli. It does not imply a single pain mechanism, but is associated with peripheral sensitization and central sensitisation.[1]The interpretation of the phenomenon of hyperalgesia might change with further research.
