Sense of Touch

Sense of touch is our body's ability to detect physical stimuli such as pressure, temperature, and vibrations through skin contact. Specialized nerve endings in the skin relay information to the brain about textures, forces, and sensations, allowing us to perceive pain, warmth, cold, and subtle differences. This sense helps us navigate our environment safely and interact with objects, providing crucial feedback for movement and safety. It works in harmony with other senses to create a comprehensive understanding of the world around us.
