What Is Allodynia?
2. Pain
As mentioned, the main symptom of allodynia is pain. The severity of the pain can vary from person to person, with some people being effectively incapacitated by the symptom. For others, it will be a lot easier to bear. Patients with the condition can also experience different types of pain.
Some patients will feel that hot and cold temperature is particularly painful and will have to stay in rooms that are within certain temperature ranges. Other people might find it excruciatingly painful to brush their hair, and some will need to avoid even the lightest of contact with other people.
