Talk:Allodynia

Is sunburn really a valid example for this? (I doubt it.) 2A02:3036:26B:A188:6E5D:91A0:264B:FC5C (talk) 09:59, 29 March 2023 (UTC) Reply

I’d agree that sunburn is not an example - sunburn is an injury and would be expected to hurt with stimulus. The same as if you poked any injury or wound. A better example would be drawing a chopstick across the skin with light pressure and that causing pain. 2A05:5800:279:8300:D023:F2B2:AD12:FAAE (talk) 17:44, 11 May 2023 (UTC) Reply

The way this whole thing reads, I was waiting for the plug at the end for some magical product that would cure a problem I don’t even have. "Many researchers"?? Really?? And the sun burn thing like someone else said. It makes me think this is one of those conditions like lymes disease that celebrities say they have because they get headaches and exhaustion. Have you people tried drinking more water? Hitting the gym? Maybe it’s just been too long since you’ve broke a sweat, idk. What I do know is that the info about this topic is as suspect as it gets. It’s written like a bunch of bibble-babble-say-nothing that’s trying to lead the reader to believe what the author wants them to believe. Putting my world views aside in regards to the granola medical community, this info needs to be reviewed by an actual neuroscientist who can elucidate which parts are reality and which parts should be subjugated to a Goop article for Gwyneth Paltrow to explain why going to her yoga retreat is the only known cure for Allodynia. 35.142.220.214 (talk) 11:11, 26 May 2024 (UTC) Reply
