Answer 1

There is basicly two pain sensations.

First one is cordinated by your spine.

Second is from your brain.

First one gives you the ability to tell that you are hurt and time to get away.Second one is for seeking medical treatment and for remembering you are hurt.

You can try it yourself pinch yourself with something a little sharp for example a pencil you will realise that the moment you pinch a sharp pain will going to get produced but after a second or two the burning continuous pain will start.
