One Rare Disorder Makes People Unable to Feel Pain

A condition called Congenital Insensitivity to Pain (CIP) prevents people from feeling physical pain. While it may sound beneficial, it’s actually extremely dangerous.

People with CIP can:

  • Break bones without realizing it.
  • Suffer severe burns without noticing.
  • Develop untreated injuries that become life-threatening.

Pain serves as the body’s warning system, so living without it greatly increases the risk of serious injury and infection.
