Central Pain Syndrome is a neurological condition.

24/7 Sensations can affect us all differently, in different places on our bodies, and at different levels of pain and suffering.

Extremely difficult to diagnose.
Often sending the patient to many doctors to find one that believes in their suffering.
Finding a doctor who is willing to treat and work to find relief for the person that suffers with this savage pain becomes a miracle in the mind of those that suffer.

Causes:
Central pain syndrome occurs because of injury to central nervous system... any diseases that eventually reach the central nervous system.

Sensations:
It can be a steady, sometimes deep burning, aching, cutting, tearing, pressing, lacerating mixture of pain sensation.
Pain may be moderate to severe in intensity.

CPS may be described
as weird sensations like Burning: "A chemical, not a purely physical burn" , “bone cold”,  “wet” sensations, tingling, a "pins and needles", a “ballooning” sensation, throbbing, the feeling of a dental probe on a raw nerve, even metallic.

Intense skin reactions
