A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hypervigilance: Hypervigilance is an anxiety symptom where a person pays too much attention to a physical symptom or even a normal function. Hypervigilance can lead to more anxiety thereby intensifying physical symptoms. Hypervigilance can also alter a person's perception to the point where pain is intensified.
