Anxiety can cause pain, should be judged according to the specific situation.
If the degree of anxiety is relatively mild, usually does not cause other symptoms, nor does it cause pain. However, if the degree of anxiety is more severe, it will increase the sensitivity of sensory nerves. When the patient has an anxiety attack, the body's feeling of pain stimulation will be magnified multiple times, thus feeling different degrees of pain in the body.
For pain caused by anxiety, the patient should be treated with anti-anxiety treatment under the guidance of the doctor in time. After the anxiety is improved, the pain symptoms will gradually disappear.
