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.
These heat receptors in turn block the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain to be detected by the body. The team found that the heat receptor, known as TRPV1, can block P2X3 pain receptors. These pain receptors are activated by ATP, the bodyâs source of energy, when it is released from damaged and dying cells. By blocking the pain receptors, TRPV1 is able to stop the pain being sensed by the body.
