In this video, Jeffrey Mogil, EP Taylor Chair in pain studies at McGill University, explains!

According to Jeffrey,people tend to give SIMILAR descriptions of their pain, regardless of the specific condition causing it.

While the use of similar language to describe pain may suggest that individuals are having a similar experience, Jeffrey notes that this is about as far as the commonality goes.🛑

Pain is a complex experience that is influenced by a variety of factors, including individual differences in physiology, psychology, and environment. 👈
