Pain

Algesia usually uses the tip of a pin to gently pierce the patient's skin with an even force, allowing the patient to immediately state the specific feeling. To avoid subjective or suggestive effects, patients should be tested with their eyes closed. During the test, pay attention to the comparison of bilateral symmetrical parts, and record the type (normal, allergic, diminished, disappeared) and range of sensory disorders after the test.
