Allodynia: Anyone else sensitive to touch?

@christinejarvis91 Hey there! Sorry you're suffering in this way, but know you are NOT alone! Wanted to ask - is it stretchy elastic of any kind you are sensitive to, or a certain type of sewn band, if that makes sense? I really like Vanity Fair underwear - it's super soft and I would only know it was touching my skin if I looked. As for bras (regular ones), I like Hanes the best. No underwire, very soft and minimal. Sports bras - I like All in Motion or Puma the best. Under Armour or Nike are ok, but depends on the model. Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any other questions or we can make any other recommendations for anything. 🙂 Wishing you pain-free days and good vibes!

I meant underwear. I tried the hanes but the parts wherre the threads are put together if they start coming apart it starts rubbing against my skin and causing pain. I would try sports bras but anytime I've tried them it feels like I'm in a harness and being constricted and suffocated around my chest. So, I don't know if it's the style, the size or just the allodynia/autism

What about jeans I don't know why but the fabric threads on the side really bother me? Could jeggings or sweatpants work instead? Is there a possibility that I'll just never be able to wear fitted clothes because of my allodynai?
