Good evening everyone.

Does a pain threshold lower the older a person is?

Thank you in advance.
 
Probably... but it's still pretty much under debate. Pain is such a weird subjective thing that it's really hard to design a decent study to measure changes.
Have a read at this for a lot more information than you probably wanted Kitty :-)
