Itch
Itch (
Latin:
pruritus) is a that causes the desire or
reflex to scratch. Itch has resisted many attempts to classify it as any one type of sensory experience. Modern science has shown that itch has many similarities to
pain, and while both are unpleasant
sensory experiences, their behavioral response patterns are different. Pain creates a withdrawal reflex, while itch leads to a
scratch reflex.
