Pain arranging wig net (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

twinge

'pain' is the definition.
(twinge is a kind of pain)

'arranging wig net' is the wordplay.
'arranging' indicates anagramming the letters.
'wig'+'net'='wignet'
'wignet' anagrammed gives 'TWINGE'.

(Other definitions for twinge that I've seen before include "Small pain eg from conscience" , "Sudden localised pain" , "A small pang, of pain or concience" , "Slight ache" , "Sudden sharp pain" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
