We know that angina pain is felt in left arm, pathology at diaphragm may result in pain in shoulder tip, and at times hip joint is affected but the pain is felt in knee joint. Can anyone please explain me why pain is not felt at actual site, logically it should be perceived with same intensity all over the area of distribution of regional sensory nerve.
