First off, they are both force divided by area. Pounds per square inch.

Newtons per
meter squared. That sort of thing.
Pressure is often used with fluids (gases or liquids), whereas stress is more often used
with solids.
One major difference is that pressure only acts perpendicular to a surface, whereas
stress can also be parallel to a surface as well as perpendicular to it. A stress parallel to
a surface is called shear stress. The perpendicular part is called normal stress.
Pressure can only be positive wheres normal stress can be negative or positive. A
negative normal stress is called tension. A positive normal stress is called
compression, or compressive stress. Come to think of it, sometimes the sign
convention is he other way around, with tension being positive and compression being
negative. For some reason, structural analysts seem to do it that way. And they should
be the experts, eh? But I always think of compression as being positive.
If you want to get fussy and mathematical, stress is a tensor of order 2. Or is it rank 2?
Something like that. Pressure is usually considered a scalar. Or sometimes people
think of it as a tensor too, but with the diagonal entries all equal to p and the offdiagonal terms equal to 0. So then it's basically a stress tensor with constraints.
I don't know where all this internal external mumbo jumbo came from. This is
mentioned a lot in the answers to the other thread that someone mentioned.
What is the difference between pressure and stress as they have the same units?
Several people there are saying that pressure is applied to the outside of things and
that causes stress on the inside. Well, that's rot. Nice and simplistic sounding and
they all jumped on the bandwagon, I guess. Pressure exists in the interior of fluids just
the same as stress in solids. You can have stress in fluids too, by the way. It's just that
shear stress in fluids requires continuous shearing motion (and viscosity) in the fluid
whereas solids can sustain the stress continuously without moving. But inside the
water in a swimming pool, there is pressure. You can feel it pressing on your ear
drums when you dive down. But just becuase it's pressing in on the outside doesn't
mean it is only on the outside. The pressure continues all the way to the inside of your
body too. Sure, you could call that stress too if you like, but it's still pressure. You can
also have stress on the exterior of a solid as well as inside. It's just the force applied at
the surface divided by the area that it's applied to.

Pressure is a special stress.

1) Stress occurs when a force is applied on a object in any direction.

In image, force is applied and stress acts on each plane of the object. It means that
stress can be in any direction and any angle. It can be tensile or compressive.
2) Pressure is always compressive and perpendicular in nature. It tries to compress the
suface on which it acts.

Someone can say that, compressed air or fluid inside a closed vessel expands it, while
pressure is compressive in nature. The fact is that the pressure acts normally and
compresses the atmosphere surrounding the vessel, which results in expansion of
vessel surface.
Remember, pressure is always normal and compressive while stress can be at any
angle and in at any direction.
As both are force acting on some area, that why carries same unit (Newton per unit
area).

They are basically the same thing and the terms used tend to reflect context
rather than physics. You would use 'Stress' when dealing with stretching etc,
pressure when dealing with gases etc.
