Cold-induced dysaesthesia in acute idiopathic polyneuritis.
Two cases are reported of cold-induced dysaesthesia occurring during an attack of acute idiopathic polyneuritis. Two similar cases found in the literature are reviewed. It is suggested that the dysaesthesia may be a localized symptom of cold sensitivity, with an initiating trigger in common with acute idiopathic polyneuritis.
