Drop homotopic effects of masseter-muscle pain on somatosensory sensitivity in healthy participants
Abstract Current pain classifications use 1.0-kg palpation of the masseter muscle to distinguish between “pain patients” and “healthy controls” but a thorough understanding of the normal physiological responses to various somatosensory stimuli is lacking. The aim of this study was to investigate som...
