Hyperexcitation
Neurons firing too easily or too often, which in turn can make something
perceived as painful feel even worse (hyperalgesia), or it can make things hurt
that should not (allodynia). Injury-induced hyperexcitability is not limited to
nociceptors. Hyperexcitability can also develop in myelinated afferents that
normally convey innocuous information (e.g. normal movement and touch) and
under neuropathic conditions, mechanical allodynia can occur.
