Allodynia: Anyone else sensitive to touch?

Simply my opinion, partly based on experience: the elastic material, being synthetic and tightly woven, may aggravate your symptoms of allodynia. As I've said before, shearling lined boots and loose and soft wool like merino work best for me. I think it's because it's airy. The pressure of stretch fabrics like lycra may be misinterpreted as heat.

Where are some stores that would sell these type of fabrics in their clothing? And you think that some of the fabric may be whats causing me to feel hot body temp wise even when its cold? Does anyone else with allodynia have a problem with overheating?

So no stretch fabrics then? Another problem I have is body heat and feeling too hot; even when it's not; I don't know if it has to do with my autism, fabrics I'm wearing or if I'm drinking too much caffeine on top of taking my medication. Which is why I don't wear wool fabrics or anything like that.
