pain
a symptom of some physical hurt or disorder
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain pain as a symptom, relay types, mechanisms and general management from pain medicine sources, describe the conditions the registry aliases name including lead colic, and distinguish pain from suffering, nociception and emotional distress, routing urgent symptoms and giving no personal medication advice.
In the WordNet sense, a symptom of some physical hurt or disorder, an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, as defined by the International Association for the Study of Pain, occurring as acute, chronic, nociceptive, neuropathic and nociplastic pain, with specific examples in the registry aliases such as aches, hurting, chafing, intertrigo, a skin inflammation in folds, and lead colic or painter s colic from lead poisoning. Severe, sudden or chest pain needs urgent care. The model routes people to clinicians.
What it is for: Not applicable; a symptom.
It can be route urgent pain first; explain types and mechanisms; relay general management; distinguish related concepts.
Distinguishing features
Sensory and emotional
Acute or chronic
Several mechanisms
Subjective
What it looks like
Not a visible object; an experience.
Physical character
IASP definition revised: 2020 year
chronic pain threshold: over 3 month
adults with chronic pain: about 20 percent - estimates vary
How it is recognised
Unpleasant experience linked to tissue damage
Ache, hurting, chafing, intertrigo, lead colic, painter s colic
Suffering is broader distress; nociception is neural signalling; emotional pain is psychological
