How does pain differ from ache?

I found the "answer" to the question.
 
a pain is something that hurts; an ache is a prolonged dull pain
According to those definitions. Ignorable pain is considered an ache?
joanie!! lol you're driving me crazy, trying to figure out all these definations!!
 
Why not concentrate on some other things, said nicely.. it might get your mind off it :)
 
Who cares what the defination is
 
What is is and what isn't isn't...
Well... because I am trying to figure out what my pain really is, that way I can decide on which pain warrants pain meds and which warrants ignoring.
 
I do have a history... which is I broke my elbow a year back, and I went almost a month without getting it seen about because I was able to ignore the pain and took IBU for the pain. But turned out I broke my elbow and needed surgery to get a rod, wires and a few screws in to fix it. I did not even cry when I broke my elbow, I did cry like a sissy bitch when I broke my knee though.
 
I am just tired of suffering. I just want to be better already. I got a taste of feeling better when the Remicade was doing its job and it was great to be in less pain and not be preggo to achieve being that way.
 
If you want to see pic of my arm from when I broke it, and before I went to get it seen about you can go to this link. http://usera.imagecave.com/jooniper/arm/arm11.jpg
 
*note: Yes, Katie... I have hit the "brick wall" you keep talking about*
