For ex: hitting on shin bone hurt more than hurting your knuckles, why? Is it to do with number of nerve endings or the type of bone itself?
In: Biology
If i remember correctly, it’s because the shin one is very close to the surface. So when you hit against something you are hitting the actual bone. When you hit your knuckles it depends on how you hit them, it could also hurt, but there is more tissue to protect it.
