How should we define itching?

Abstract

The standard definition of itching (as "an unpleasant sensation that provokes the desire to scratch") takes no account of recent advances in knowledge about itch physiology. Always imprecise, this definition is also out-of-date. Its defects are discussed in this article, and some modifications are proposed.
