So I want to understand why exactly our bodies say the outside cold hurts and why the hot temperatures feel nice up to an extent then it hurts but also just feels more uncomfortable. I understand the direct touch aspect but not ambient.
So I understand the evolutionary need for it but I want to know the science. What is going on in your body that makes the cold hurt
In: Chemistry
To keep you alive. It hurts so you don’t get hypothermia and die. It hurts so you do something quickly to get yourself away from the extreme temps.
