Pain?
Pain is surely in the experience of each of us -- none has any doubt about its existence and none fails to detect it when it occurs.
But, beyond that we have little common understanding of this phenomenon!
John steps on a nail and falls unconscious, while Bill steps on a nail and "doesn't feel it!"
This is the web site where you can begin to understand the common experience -- pain -- and how to better handle it for yourself.
This is the web site where you can learn how aspirin and drugs "handle" pain (harmfully) and what natural remedies achieve pain relief without the use of harmful drugs.
The essence of "pain" is to understand that it is the motion of some particles -- motion beyond a mental limit set in your body. This "motion" is better understood in medical terminology as "inflammation." In other words "inflammation" is, in fact, something actually moving. When particles move, rapidly, there is heat generated. We call that heat inflammation when it is "low grade" and inside the body.
The "mental limit" is like a threshold for pain, and does not remain constant.
If these concepts sound strange to you it is because modern medicine has a very poor grasp on this ancient subject -- pain. Having "solved" pain with a drug, doctors have hardly looked further into the subject. More pain? Use morphine instead of aspirin! The solution is easy even if the cause has not been examined.
Mine is not an original question, but mine is an original answer. Click here for one doctor who wonders what is "pain."
Seeing patients with chronic pain in my clinic, doing research on work-related injuries in factories, and teaching neuroanatomy has lead me to ask (almost everyone):
- What is pain?
- How can we define it?
- Can pain be described so that others can understand what the pain really feels like?
- Can the complexity of this very personal experience be explained anatomically?
After quite a few dumb stares from people who either thought the answers were impossible or obvious, I was pleased to find there were thousands of professionals asking the same questions, and some devoting their lives to finding answers.
The International Association for the Study of Pain gives this definition (HERE)
Until now!
