What is the relationship between pain catastrophizing and healthy human subjects?

21 February 2015 1 6K Report

In relation to finding mechanisms of pain catastrophizing in healthy humans and what it will likely be when HPA axis is disrupted by disease.

Joshua Aviram

first of all, their are many studies regarding PCS in relation to experimental pain sensetivity.

second, HPA axis disruption will be likely be only in a disease state, but it can only influence pain sensitivity and not PCS because catastrophization is a trait and it cant be changed by hormonal changes.
