Why is Pain not Characteristic of Inflammation of the Lung Tissue?

Published on: 7th March, 2024

The article presents materials that make it possible to understand the reason for the absence of one of the classic signs of inflammatory processes in patients with acute pneumonia. The peculiarities of the functional significance of the lungs for the body are the reason that in the case of inflammation in the tissues of the organ, nature has provided for the presence of a more important adaptive mechanism instead of pain as a signal sign. Understanding the causes of the absence of pain in pneumonia in the initial period, which is most responsible for timely and effective care for these patients, allows us to look at the pathogenesis of the disease from a new point of view, which is of fundamental importance for the correction and selection of pathogenetic means of care.
