'''Pain''' is the subjective interpretation of sensory input from the [[nervous system]], primarily from nociceptors (injury-specific receptors). It is your body's way of letting you know that you are injured or in danger of being injured, and has been shown to evoke a powerful [Pavlov|pavlovian] reaction, preventing the person from further exposing themselves to similar situations.
