Genetic components of human pain sensitivity: a protocol for a genome-wide association study of experimental pain in healthy volunteers

@JohnGalt2727 @wekilldemonz @LizSmit12238768 @pearlythingz Uh, pain threshold is based on genetics, not gender: https://t.co/pNudKeFc9U

Fascinating to learn that sensitivity to pain has a heritability of up to 55%. There are genetic factors in many chronic pain conditions but a direct link between experimental pain sensitivity and clinical pain sensitivity is often not present. https://t
