Localized Pain
Allodynia may not occur in every part of a person's body. It's common for a specific side of the body or a portion of the skin to experience the pain, while other areas of the body experience sensation normally.
This can be useful in helping diagnose and manage allodynia. A doctor can test for affected regions of pain, and sometimes a specialist can guide patients with allodynia to use sensation on other parts of the body to help decrease the pain in affected areas.3‘Using Somatosensory Rehabilitation to Treat Allodynia.’ RSDSA, 4 Jan. 2018, rsds.org/somatosensory-rehabilitation-allodynia/
