Pain is a sense that gives an awareness of
harmful effects on or in the body. It may be
triggered by stimuli such as trauma,
inflammation, and heat. Pain is transmitted
by specialized nerves and also has
psychological components controlled by higher
centres in the brain. Drugs that control pain
are known as painkillers or analgesics.
