I came across to think about this. I wanted to see a discussion about this issue.
While both types of pain can be painful and in time both types of pain will be able to heal. Although, This is what gets me - Some argue that emotional pain is a lot worse than physical pain. Some argue that physical pain can be worse than emotional pain.
Also, while both types of pain can hurt very much at the time they occur, social pain has the unique ability to come back over and over again, whereas physical pain lingers only as an awareness that it was indeed at one time painful.
The thing about the physical pain is - It hurts but then, it also serves you as a reminder. Emotional pain can also be scarring but it also can serve you as a reminder too.
