Abstract
This article presents qualitative as well as quantitative aspects of pain in patients with DM2. Pain is a frequent and important symptom in patients with DM2, affecting quality of life. We found mechanical hyperalgesia, indicative of a peripheral mechanism of pain. The widespreadness of hyperalgesia may suggest central sensitization, but this finding was not supported by other results and needs further exploration.
