Pain News

Pain is the uncomfortable sensation which results from the injury of the body, either from conditions within itself, as in disease, or from external agencies, as by pricking, etc. The sense of pain from environmental losses, as in the loss of friends, disappointments, etc., may be included in this sense, and the pain in such cases is referred to the body itself. The cortical localization of pain is not known, though there is some evidence in favor of an area for the appreciation of pain in the post-central gyrus and the adjacent cortex.
