What Causes Pain?
Forces cause pain. Forces beyond what the structures of your body can withstand. They can be high intensity and short duration forces like in the case of direct trauma. A collision on a football field, a fall off a ladder, a motor vehicle accident to name a few. On the other end of the spectrum they can be low intensity long duration forces. As with the case of most repetitive overuse type injuries.
The three forces your body has to control are compression (being squeezed together), traction (being pulled apart), and shearing (one structure being slid on another). Now your body can recover and rebuild from a lot of stress and strain caused when these forces are uncontrolled, until it can't. You hit a point where your bodies ability to repair after the insult of these uncontrolled forces is exceeded. Basically the breakdown exceeds the recovery and you get pain and injury.
