Abstract

Referred pain, also known as reflective pain, is a phenomenon in which pain is perceived at a location different from the actual site of the painful stimulus. This occurs due to the interconnected nature of the nervous system, where signals from internal organs or musculoskeletal structures can be misinterpreted by the brain. Common examples include angina-related pain felt in the left arm, jaw, or back instead of the chest. While the exact biological mechanisms remain uncertain, theories suggest central hyperexcitability, temporal summation, and neuronal convergence as contributing factors. Referred pain is clinically significant as it can indicate underlying medical conditions, such as myocardial infarction, organ dysfunction, or nerve compression. Accurate diagnosis and differentiation between referred and radiating pain are crucial for effective treatment and management.
