Pain is a warning system for your body.
Conditioning and training exist to overcome those "early warning" presets so to speak.
Kinda like how it "hurts" when you run...you're physically capable of pushing on, but your body really doesn't think you should.
However, at some point, pain stops being early warning, and becomes an imminent danger or "system failure" kind of signal. The key is to keep it from getting there, and recognizing the difference. I slipped while drunk off my ass yesterday and banged up both knees/shins, leaving large bruises. It hurts like a ##### but it's clearly not indication of any serious danger.
