Itch, or pruritus, is a common and unpleasant sensation transmitted by both the peripheral and central nervous systems, sharing pathways with pain sensation. The itch pathway is complex, and itch is a perplexing symptom. We report a patient whose presentation following a spinal stroke highlights the potential mechanism of neuropathic itch, the challenges in managing chronic neuropathic itch and dysaesthesia and the importance of a holistic approach in treating patients who have these symptoms.
