Nerve sensitization is a serious and underdiagnosed stress-related condition.
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Severe headaches, digestive issues, and chronic neck and back pain can result when stress isn’t properly identified and managed. Known as central sensitization syndromes (CSS), the debilitating conditions are often missed by traditional healthcare practices, leading to a long-lasting disability.
Under high stress, the body’s weakest link breaks, which may mean headaches, back pain, or digestive issues. With sensitization, the nerves are more sensitive to stimuli. The nerves and the brain relay the message of extreme pain. The physical impact of touch, pressure, and movement are heightened in a person with nerve sensitization.
