Pain and heat are both identified as distinct components of the sense of touch [1] and are consistently cited together as two of the primary hallmark signs of acute inflammation [2], [3], [4], [5]. They are also linked through the physiological processes of the inflammatory response, where both are triggered by pro-inflammatory mediators and increased blood flow at an injury site [6], [7], [8], [9], [10].
