Pain is an unpleasant feeling in your body that compels you to take protective action, to protect that body part.
And if we can appreciate that pain is a protective feeling and if we can communicate that to people, we change the game.
If people can understand that pain is a protective feeling that is urging behaviour, it's a game changer.
use, modern pain scientists use this language of the brain producing pain.
And I think this should penetrate our language clinically.
The brain makes pain.
The brain produces pain.
The brain doesn't detect pain.
The brain doesn't interpret something out there as pain.
The brain makes it.
If you hear someone say pain detector or pain receptor or a pain pathway, it's nonsense.
There's no such thing as a pain receptor.
In lab studies, the relationship between the noxious stimulus and pain is variable.
It's not just a bit of variability, it's massive variability.
And this is in a highly controlled laboratory with one researcher in the room.
The relationship between the message from the tissues and what the brain does is highly variable then.
How much more highly variable is it going to be in the real world?
