New research reveals that the human brain contains a built-in pain map that activates in different regions when relieving pain in the face, arm, or leg.  Researchers at the University of Sydney have revealed a detailed map-like system within the brainstem that regulates pain differently depending on where it occurs in the body. Their discovery could help develop safer and more precise treatments for chronic pain that do not depend on opioids.


Verse 1
In the quiet core of thinking clay,
Where whispers rise and drift away,
They found the places pain will go,
A hidden map the nerves still know.

Chorus
Map of the mind, lines of relief,
Drawn through sorrow, joy, and grief.
Each aching limb, each wounded face,
Finds mercy's mark, its sacred place.

Verse 2
Not one road leads through despair,
Each pain a path that ends somewhere.
Face, arm, leg-each pulse, each cry,
Has its own star burning high.

Chorus
Map of the mind, lines of relief,
Drawn through sorrow, joy, and grief.
Each aching limb, each wounded face,
Finds mercy's mark, its sacred place.

Bridge
No pill can show the way inside,
But patterns bloom where neurons hide.
From Sydney's halls, the news runs clear-
Hope's design is written here.

Final Chorus
Map of the mind, lines of relief,
Healing traced in pure belief.
Pain's not gone, but it can be tamed
By knowing where it's softly named.
