A rare medical condition where a person has lost the ability to feel sensations like touch or pain in their body.
From Greek an- (not, without) + haphe (touch), literally meaning 'without touch' or 'inability to feel.'
Anaphia is the opposite of hypersensitivity—while most people worry about feeling too much, someone with anaphia experiences a kind of sensory silence, making everyday tasks like holding hot objects dangerously difficult.
