The answer is somatic sense. The somatic senses accumulate information about cutaneous sensations or tactile sensations on the surface of the skin and proprioceptive sensations. The most common stimuli are sensed when tactile stimuli are detected by mechanoreceptors and produce sensations of touch and pressure.
