1. pain sensation

   Pain is a distressing feeling often caused by intense or damaging stimuli. The International Association for the Study of Pain defines pain as "an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling that associated with, actual or potential tissue damage." In medical diagnosis, pain is regarded as a symptom of an underlying condition. Pain motivates the individual to withdraw from damaging situations, to protect a damaged body part while it heals, and to avoid similar experiences in the future. Most pain resolves once the noxious stimulus is removed and the body has healed, but it may persist despite removal of the stimulus and apparent healing of the body. Sometimes pain arises in the absence of any detectable stimulus, damage or disease.Pain is the most common reason for physician consultation in most developed countries. It is a major symptom in many medical conditions, and can interfere with a person's quality of life and general functioning. Simple pain medications are useful in 20% to 70% of cases. Psychological factors such as social support, cognitive behavioral therapy, excitement, or distraction can affect pain's intensity or unpleasantness.In some debates regarding physician-assisted suicide or euthanasia, pain has been used as an argument to permit people who are terminally ill to end their lives.

1. pain sensation

   Pain sensation, also known as nociception, is a neurological process whereby the nervous system responds to harmful stimuli by producing a subjective feeling of discomfort or unpleasant sensation, usually resulting from potential or actual tissue damage. It serves as a warning system that alerts the body to injury or potential harm, allowing the individual to take defensive action. Pain sensation can vary in intensity and quality, ranging from sharp, throbbing, dull, burning, or aching, and may be chronic or acute.
