What triggers the cancer related pain?
I did some reading about pain (mostly wikipedia) and nociceptors and I understand they react to several types of stimuli. Apparently mechanic and thermal stimuli are out of the question, that leaves us with some kind of chemical stimuli - but what it is?
Or is the mechanism of cancer related pain completely different?
