Description:

We have heard many times about the phantom pain without being able to relate to it or even knowing what it really means. When it come to phantom pain, it’s hard to explain the type of sensation it is. Though, a clear example of phantom pain occurs during a “raging” toothache. Patients go to the dentist because the feel a pain located to an area, but they are not able to really tell which tooth in particular is causing the pain. The pressure and the discomfort endured are sometimes so strong that some confuse an upper tooth with a lower one and vice versa. Surprisingly similar with what Marzal identi es as sound. Sometimes confused and inexplicable to others. Sometimes so hard to associate and identify. Sometimes frustrating and in ammatory.
