Can a person die from pain?

Answeryes AnswerSevere and prolonged pain can cause shock, which, untreated, can lead to death. Also, pain can alter the functioning of the heart and eventually lead to life-threatening heart conditions. Answer

Also, when in pain it may trigger the "fight or flight" reflex, which could potentially kill you if active for too long. In this case it would be pain for a period of time. The "fight or flight" reflex is triggered when your body sends off signals that indicate that you are in danger. It'll essentially cause you're body to push itself to extremes. Adrenaline rushes through your body, your eyes dilate and your vision is restricted to only what's in front of you, your heart rate and breathing speeds up, hearing loss occurs, and some organs that carry out less important functions (that aren't immediately required to live, like digestion) will shut down for the time being. If in this state for a prolonged period of time, it could be fatal.
