When your lungs hurt, there are chances it might be simple rib muscles aching or there is a serious underlying condition like cancer. It is not exactly right to say âlungs hurtâ or âlung painâ since it is not possible for lungs to feel pain as they lack pain receptors.
Histamine affects several receptors found in different tissues. Sometimes blocking the receptor and sometimes adding to it.

These effects also depend on which receptor is being bound by histamine; for example, the H2 receptor mediates bronchodilation.
