Low mechano-afferent fibers reduce thermal pain but not pain intensity in CRPS

BACKGROUND: Human hairy (not glabrous skin) is equipped with a subgroup of C-fibers, the C-tactile (CT) fibers. Those do not mediate pain but affective aspects of touch. CT-fiber-activation reduces experimental pain if they are intact. In this pilot study we investigated pain modulating capacities o...
