Pain or pain is an unpleasant sensation that is often caused by an intense stimulation or damage. Pain can also be defined as a sensory and emotional experience unpleasant associated with tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage.
The study has involved a number of 72 000 patients in the United States. Researchers from Stanford University School of Medicine, California analyzed pain scores recorded in medical records at a number of 72 000 patients.
The study is a study large enough. The researchers found differences in the level of pain reported by men and women for certain disorders, including recurrence of pain symptoms, sinusitis, and hernia.
Doctors should pay more attention that the pain is different between men and women. Hormones, genes, or psychological factors can explain differences in perceived pain between men and women.
Pain is a major symptom in many medical conditions, and can significantly interfere with quality of life and general functioning. Psychological factors that can affect sensitivity to pain, among others, social support, hypnotic suggestion, excitement, or disturbance. Psychological factors can significantly modulate the intensity of pain.
Our data support the notion that there are differences in pain that is felt by sex. The results of this study is very important to be noticed by the doctor.
Past studies also have found that the hormone may affect the sensitivity to pain, including the phase of the menstrual cycle.
The difference in pain sensitivity between men and women may be caused because men feel they should be strong, thus underestimating the pain or do not want to acknowledge the pain being felt. Men may underestimate their symptoms, which is one reason why men are often unwilling seek help to deal with the pain.
The results of these studies have been published in the Journal of Pain. Further research is still needed to know the reason why women feel more pain.
