Here’s the thing, pain isn’t just about tissues, muscles, or joints. It’s also about how your nervous system and brain interpret what’s happening.
When you get hurt, nerves send danger signals to your brain — that’s acute pain, and it’s completely normal. But sometimes, even after the tissues have healed, the nervous system doesn’t “get the memo.” It stays on high alert, sending pain signals long after the original injury is gone.
This is what researchers call sensitization — your nerves become extra reactive, and your brain keeps the alarm ringing even when there’s no more damage.
🧠 What Science Tells Us
Recent research on musculoskeletal pain shows that pain is influenced by a whole network of factors — not just what’s happening in your body, but also your immune system, emotions, stress levels, and even beliefs about pain.
• Immune cells and nerves talk to each other. When you’re injured or stressed, immune chemicals can make nerves more sensitive.
• Your spinal cord and brain can amplify pain signals if they’ve been active for too long — this is called central sensitization.
• Glial cells, the support cells in your nervous system, can “feed” pain by staying active, even after healing.
• And here’s the kicker- the longer your nervous system stays in this loop, the easier it becomes for pain to persist — even from things that wouldn’t normally hurt.
Pain becomes less about “what’s broken” and more about how your nervous system has learned to protect you.
