== Definition ==<br />
[[Referred pain]] is pain perceived in a part of the body other than its actual source. It is a common symptom in conditions such as [[gallstones]], [[kidney stones]], and [[appendicitis]]. <br />
<br />
== Mechanism ==<br />
The exact mechanism of referred pain is unknown, but it is believed to involve mixed [[nerve]] signals in the [[spinal cord]]. When an organ is damaged or inflamed, it sends pain signals to the spinal cord, which then sends these signals to the brain. However, the brain may interpret these signals as coming from the skin or other surface areas of the body, resulting in the perception of pain in a different location.<br />
<br />
== Clinical significance ==<br />
Referred pain can be a useful diagnostic tool for healthcare professionals. For example, pain in the right shoulder can indicate a problem with the gallbladder, while pain in the left shoulder can suggest a problem with the heart. However, referred pain can also make diagnosis more difficult, as the true source of the pain may not be immediately apparent.<br />
