One possible reason for your pain is that your brain perceives lack of flexibility as a threat.

Because from an evolutionary standpoint, if you aren’t mobile enough, you have less chance of survival.

How are you gonna climb up a tree to escape a predator if you can’t even stand up without groaning? 🥲

So your brain enhances your perception of pain as a warning. Because pain is just that: your body telling you “HEY! Do something!”
Or in this case: MOVE!
