There are people that can't feel pain and they often get fucked up by things we see as minimal. It's to let us know something is wrong or something is hazardous for us.

To stop us from dying. If we had a serious cut on our body and didn't know about it, we'd just bleed out.

yeah but why does it have to hurt

why can't it just be a vibration or something

the more it vibrates, the more severe the injury

What if you can have an alert sensation for hazardous life threatening things but it wasn't painful?
Like your body makes a noise or something to alert you.

Poetic license for emphasis. Also, good luck getting rid of a headache with it vibrating.
