The general senses found in the skin and subcutaneous tissue include touch, pressure, pain, temperature, and vibration. Touch and pressure are primarily detected by mechanoreceptors, pain by nociceptors, temperature by thermoreceptors, and vibration by specialized mechanoreceptors. Among these, free nerve endings (responding to pain and temperature) and Merkel cells (for touch) are unencapsulated receptors.
