Why do people respond in different ways to the same kind of pain
Rashid [163]
The reason why some people are more sensitive than others comes down to how our body modulates pain from the skin to the brain and the structure of the brain itself. It all begins with a bunch of sensory receptors detecting an unpleasant stimuli. These are transformed into pain signals that are then conducted throughout the central nervous system via a series of 'pain pathways'.
