Inhibition of current perception thresholds in A-delta and C fibers through somatosensory stimulation of the body surface
Abstract Somatosensory stimulation of the body surface, such as through tactile and noxious stimulation, is widely known to inhibit pain. However, no studies have measured the threshold changes due to somatosensory stimulation of each nerve fiber (Aβ, Aδ, and C) separately. We examined the changes i...
