Abstract: A dolorimeter apparatus comprises a member (16) having a property which varies according to pressure applied to the member. A device (26, 28) is provided for securing the member to a hand of a user so the member fits under a finger tip (30, 32) of the user. The member is dimensioned to fit between the finger (30) and body tissue (14) touched by the user while permitting substantial tactile communication to the finger. A device (20) is provided for detecting and quantifying the variance in said property from said member.
