Pain is a complex sensory and emotional experience typically associated with physical or emotional distress. It serves as a warning signal indicating potential harm or injury to the body, prompting protective responses.
Effective pain management often involves a multidisciplinary approach tailored to individual needs.
Pain perception involves intricate neurological processes wherein nerve signals transmit information from the site of injury or discomfort to the brain. It can vary widely in intensity, duration, and quality, influencing emotions, behaviors, and overall well-being.
