Opioid-Induced Hyperalgesia: Causes, Symptoms, and Detox | Drug and Alcohol Detox Austin
Opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH) happens when taking opioids for a long time makes you more sensitive to pain instead of relieving it. For people dealing with opioid addiction, OIH makes things harder. It can become tough to tell the difference between pain from withdrawal and pain from hyperalgesia. But at Briarwood Detox Center in Austin, TX, we offer detox programs that help you manage both issues with care and attention.
