The sensation and transmission of pain are important functions of the nervous system. Pain can act as the body's alarm system - signaling bone, tissue and organ damage, disease or trauma. Because pain is an important determinant of medical diagnosis, it is important not to treat severe pain without first understanding its underlying cause. In cases where the cause of underlying pain has been diagnosed, Chinese herbs may be used to comfort and strengthen the body against the onset of pain.
