J Scholz, CJ Woolf - nature neuroscience, 2002 - unc.edu Pain can be an adaptive sensation, an early warning to protect the body from tissue injury. By
the introduction of hypersensitivity to normally innocuous stimuli, pain may also aid in repair
after tissue damage. Pain can also be maladaptive, reflecting pathological function of the ... Cited by 315 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 12 versions
