Your Brain’s Secret Pain Alarm Exposed

Ever wonder why pain can haunt you long after an injury? Scientists just found ‘fear neurons’ in the brain that link physical pain to emotional distress—basically, your own built-in alarm system. These CGRP neurons don’t just make you hurt; they can create fear memories even without real pain. Silencing them in mice reduced both pain and anxiety. This could explain why chronic pain and anxiety are so tangled—and might lead to new treatments! #Health #BodyHealth #ScienceNews
