Poetically, the phrase “visceral pain” is used as that too intense pain, which truly comes from inside the person.
This use makes sense if it is understood that, in reality, visceral pain is that which is experienced in the muscles or bones, but that it comes from the malfunction of an organ (or a viscera).
Here we show you some pains that can be linked to an internal malfunction. It is not something mathematical, and logically, before any pain you should consult a doctor.
However, sometimes certain patterns repeat themselves: certain body pains, which seem to be muscular or bone pain, are associated with a certain internal organ. We can detect in time which organ is failing or about to fail, if we know how to interpret where the pain is coming from.
Heart
When it is the heart that has problems functioning, it is normal to feel a strong pain in the chest. But the pain can also spread to the left arm, shoulder blade, and part of the neck.
The pain can even reach the jaw.
Kidneys
Sometimes back pain is not caused by a contracture, but by a malfunction of the kidneys.
However, when the cause of the pain is in these organs, it is distinguished by pain deeper and below the ribs, reaching almost to the navel.
Pain may also be felt in the groin and inner aspect of the knee.
Small intestine
The pain linked to the small intestine is centered in the navel area, causing high sensitivity.
There may also be joint inflammation in general and pain that extends to the buttocks.
Lungs
Since the lungs do not have nerve endings, they do not hurt per se. But if they are not working well you can feel a sharp pain in your chest around them.
Additionally, the pain may spread to the neck, upper abdomen, and the right side of the back.
Other symptoms associated with the lungs may be coughing or shortness of breath.
Stomach
When the pain comes from the stomach, the part of the belly located in the middle (below the ribs) and the same area of the back usually hurt.
There may also be cervical or right shoulder pain.
liver and gallbladder
When the problem is in the liver or gallbladder, the upper right part of the abdomen, or the right shoulder, may hurt. Also the right side of the chest.
On the other hand, headaches can be suffered (right eye and forehead = liver; left eye and neck = gallbladder), pain in the neck and stiffness.
