How to use "Hurt" in context?

When we hurt, our body sends us a message that we're in danger. Our brain perceives danger in the form of a potential threat and signals our muscles to tense and prepare for action. Physical pain is a bodily response to a threatening experience, such as when we're being injured.

Physically experiencing pain is unpleasant, but it's a necessary part of being able to defend ourselves. Our brain can't process danger if we're in constant pain, so when we're hurt it sends us a warning to stop and take care. In some cases, however, physical pain can be an indication that we're actually in danger.
