Inflicting pain to oneself would be Munchausen's Syndrome. One who inflicts pain upon others is a sadist (although the textbook DSM-IV version of this also requires that the pain is inflicted without the victim's consent). A person who enjoys someone else inflicting pain upon them is a masochist.

- I don't know who answered this question before me but I'd like to clarify:

a sadist is someone who likes to inflict pain/likes to see people in pain

a masochist is someone who likes to feel pain inflicted by themselves and/or others

and someone with Munchausen's syndrome is a person who makes themselves sick/pretends to be sick/worsens a pre-existing illness; to get attention

also a person with Munchausen by proxy is someone who makes another person sick (usually a child) to get sympathy/attention
