Pain: normal conditions in fighting pain 3

If the pain becomes too severe, the body tries to protect itself by releasing natural endorphins. The endorphins bind to the opioid receptors on the axon of the substance P neuron. This slows the relay of the pain signal.

The endorphins then unbind from the receptor and are broken down immediately.
