Summary
This small pilot study tested a new, non-invasive way to stimulate a nerve in the ear (the auriculotemporal nerve) in 12 healthy adults. Researchers wanted to see if it could change how the body processes pain signals, like pressure and temperature. The goal was to gather initial knowledge, not to treat any disease.
