Cold , hot , and sharp pains . (Human body question )

So I notice when it comes to pain cold is quite painful , for example if i just sit my hand in freezing water for a long period of time . Now when it it comes to sharp pane, bruises bumps , scrapes , blood everywhere injury , that hurts , its supposed to but its not that bad for what it is . I also used to get fevers every halloween when I was very young and still went out to trick or treat with my friends . So the question is do different people have higher tolerance to some things and less to others? Where as I was always told you just have this one tolerance to all pain , this does not seem to be true.
