The terrible pain in his hand is agonan READING AND VOCABULARY Pain is an unpleasant sensation and emotional experiencelinked to tissue damage. Its purpose is to allow the body to react and prevent further tissue damage. We feel pain when a signal is sent through nerve fibers to the brain for interpretation. The experience of pain is different for everyone, and there are different ways of feeling and describing pain. This can makes it difficult to define and treat. Pain can be short-term or long-term, it can stay in one place, or it can spread around the body. Pain is felt when special nerves that detect tissue damage send tian ahant the damage along the spinal then decides what to do about the pain. For example, if you touch 5 hot surface, a message will travel through a reflex arc in the Spinal cord and cause an immediate contraction of the muscles. Thi, contraction will pull your hand away from the hot surface. This happens so fast that the message doesn't even reach the brain, However, the pain message will continue to the brain. Once there, it will cause an unpleasant sensation of pain to be felt. How an individual's brain interprets these signals and the efficiency of the communication channel between the nociceptors and the brain dictate how people feel pain. The brain may also release feel-good chemicals such as dopamine to counter the unpleasant effects of the pain. Taken from: Medical News Today C. Comprehension Ans' fen juestions b. on the text!
