Symptom: Sensations
Sensations:
Changes to sensations or the senses
Introduction:
Pain is an obvious important type of sensory symptom.
Milder abnormal nerve sensations such as pins-and-needles,
tingling,
burning,
prickling or similar are
all known as "
paresthesias"
and can lead to
numbness.
The various senses can have problems; see
vision symptoms,
hearing impairment,
taste symptoms, and
temperature sensitivity.
Any sensory symptoms need medical investigation.
