Question

Which receptor is absent in brain

Answer 1

Answer:

I've read many years ago in books, that the brain has no nerves on it, and if someone was touching your brain, you couldn't feel a thing.

Just two days before now, I had a very bad migraine, due to a cold. It's become better now, but when I had it I felt my head was going to literally split in half, as the pain was literally coming from my brain.

So it lead me to the question: How come people can get headaches if the brain has no nerves?

Answer 2

Answer:

Brain, indeed, cannot feel pain, as it lacks pain receptors (nociceptors).
