A member asked:
Why do shallow cuts hurt so bad? i have a cut on my finger from the bottom of nail to the first crease.

The Why Questions: You must understand that this is a philosophical question. There are often no good or interesting answers to 'why' questions. Your skin has nerve fibers that sense damage and when damage (a cut ) occurs you experience that as pain.
