There is a bi-directional relationship between experiences of social and physical pain, and this relationship may be explained by shared neural circuitry (i.e., anterior insula, dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, amygdala, etc). Racism is a social construct that can be perceived as threat, thus over activating stress-regulatory systems and inducing or exacerbating physical pain. It is common for minoritized individuals to experience racism in their daily lives, as well as in experimental and healthcare settings. Social stress due to racism may be a potential explanation for racial disparities in pain conditions. Extant literature posits that humans experience two types of threat: physical threat and social threat. While describing pain as “physical” or “social” can be helpful for understanding pain origins (i.e., broken bone versus lost relationship), this dichotomy is largely artificial and not particularly helpful for understanding how the human brain experiences pain. One real world example of social exclusion and rejection that is threatening and likely to bring about significant stress is racism. Racism is a system of beliefs, practices, and policies that operates to disadvantage racialized minorities while providing advantage to those with historical power, particularly White people in the United States and most other Western nations. The objective of this Mini-Review is to present evidence in support of the argument that racism promotes physical pain in racialized minorities, which in turn promotes chronic pain disparities. First, we provide a theoretical framework describing how racism is a potent stressor that affects the health and well-being of racialized minorities. We will then address the neurobiological underpinnings linking racism to social threat, as well as that linking social threats and physical pain. Finally, we will discuss how the perception of social threat brought about by racism may undermine pain management efforts.
