The phrase "a cold pain" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe a type of pain that feels cold or is associated with cold sensations, often in a medical or descriptive context.
Example: "After the injury, I experienced a cold pain radiating through my leg."
Alternatives: "a chilling pain" or "an icy discomfort."
It's a cold pain in the butt to go to the supermarket every weekend.
The experimental procedure comprises the repeated stimulation (twice) with a cold pain stimulus to assess pain sensitivity.
If volunteers scored above 8 on symptoms typical of a cold (pain in chest, sore throat, headache, sneezing, runny nose, blocked nose, hoarseness, cough, hot/cold, sweating, shivering, fever and phlegm), they were included in the cold group.
A reduced cold pain threshold has been reported by one group in two different studies [ 30, 31].
To compare the analgesic efficacy of burst-modulated medium-frequency alternating current (BMAC) and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) using an experimental cold pain model.
To compare the analgesic efficacy of interferential therapy (IFT) and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) using an experimental cold pain model.
However, LPS made women rated suprathreshold noxious heat stimuli as more painful (P = .01), and showed a tendency to rate noxious cold pain as more painful (P = .06) as compared to placebo.
We hypothesized that a decrease in cervical spine pain intensity following diagnostic blockade of the cervical zygapophyseal joints would result in a change in measures indicative of sensory hypersensitivity, specifically, an increase in pressure pain thresholds (PPT's) and a decrease in cold pain thresholds (CPT's).
In study 1, despite a rise in core temperature and changes in circulating neutrophils and lymphocytes, there was no change in pain sensitivity except a reduction in cold pain tolerance following endotoxin (p=0.045).
A decrease in cold pain withdrawal time associated with TRPA1 rs1198795 had been observed in another study [30].
The main effect of duration was due to a significantly higher cold pain threshold in the 5 min duration condition than in the 15 or 30 min duration, but this effect was present prior to stimulation (e.g. pre-stimulation baseline), and therefore cannot be attributed to the effect of stimulation per se, but rather reflects a nonspecific difference in cold pain thresholds across test days.
