How do you handle pain?

[Joshua01]

You can take some medicine or massage. If the pain is severe, it is recommended to see a doctor.

In addition to basic treatments such as drugs and physical therapy, the main pain minimally invasive techniques currently used in the field of pain disease treatment in my country are: nerve block, nerve radiofrequency ablation, intervertebral disc decompression technology, ozone, vertebroplasty, and nerve implant Stimulator or analgesic pump, spinal endoscopic treatment, etc. In addition to these minimally invasive surgical treatments, follow-up rehabilitation and surgical treatments are also necessary. If the chronic pain cannot be relieved after regular pain diagnosis and treatment, especially for many degenerative diseases, there may be indications for surgery.

Diverting attention can relieve the pain. I usually lie in bed to sleep when it is very painful. When I fall asleep, I can't feel it anymore.

Same strategy for me when I am in pain I would force myself to sleep and hope that it would be okay when I wake up or at least the pain would be lessen.
It would also depend on how I could lessen it sometimes I would make myself busy by reading manga or watching movie,
I would do whatever I could just to lessen it until it goes away.

I usually search home remedies to soothe the pain and see after a week if the pain subsides, if it still doesn’t work then I’d go see a doctor and see what pain killers I can take that are home made or one that doesn’t need pills to soothe the pain.

I guess diverting the attention to things that can produce feeling that is opposite of the pain.

I usually prefer to let my pain stay, then try multiple things to see what works for me consistently and very effectively.
As a religious person, diverting attention to deep prayers, having enough faith, deeply focusing on GOD's Words  work for me always. .. But sometimes i feel I don't have to keep bothering GOD for thesame pains/illness I most likely caused myself by always allowing unhealthy things like bad foods/air into my body, probably due to the environment I live in, and that I'm unlikely to stop living in soon ...  I then decide to try multiple natural treatments like:
1. drinking blended fruits/vegs,
2. drinking warm water,
3. drinking warm tea/herbs,
4. doing nice things to people (which kind of increase happiness/joy) , etc.
I think doing 1 to 4 (esp 4) works consistently for me... but tend to work gradually rather than immediately.  The faith-based ones work quickly/immediately.

For small thigs the home remedies might work. But generally, I do consult the doctor right in beginning because at times stretching for long days on such things might not be right when in the end, we must visit doctor only. So better just to get the right treatment from the start which is more beneficial too.

Drink honey with warm water & always keep hydrated. If you won’t take painkillers then there’s not much else you can do other than take natural supplements. Try & keep relatively fit, maybe take up yoga & deep breathing exercises. Also ensure you sit & sleep with good posture.

[canyouer]

If it is a physical pain, you have to grit your teeth and persevere, turn your attention away, and think about other things to reduce the pain. If it is a psychological pain, you have to grit your teeth as well! Too often, only if you are strong, you can overcome everything! Psychological pain is nothing more than being broken in love, losing a loved one, failing in business, being in debt, being deceived, etc. Now that it has happened, it is better to face it! Being immersed in pain and unable to extricate itself will only increase pain! When you face it with an optimistic attitude, the pain is naturally less and less! At any time, it is better to rely on others than on yourself!

Just Like how I handle a Bird 

I use the Pain to Motivate me in each thing,situation that gives me Pains, Instead of frustration , I use it as defense mechanism in incoming same situation.

I have lived my life for Many years and I know now perfectly how to handle pain.

[Jolankaa]

I always distract myself and don't think about the pain, it makes it easier to deal with

If you can do that easily, this cannot work for others by just distracting themselves from the pain. But what you're doing is good for you if you keep yourself busy.

I've seen people that went through pain and this is what they did.

I am one of many who seems to have chronic pain. I refuse to take painkillers because of what they can do to my body.
I am basically stuck using ice and heat. I don't have a bathtub so I don't have the option to use things like Epsom salt.
My pain is in my lower back, shoulders, and neck.

What do you do to handle pain?

I suggest you go to the doctor for a check-up. If you don't want medical treatment, you can take herbal medicine with massage and take herbal medicine. The most important thing is to think positively to recover.

If we do experience chronic pain that does not improve in a long time, it is indeed the best step to come to the doctor. Let the doctor give us a solution,
but some people really refuse to take the medicine that the doctor gives, because drugs have bad side effects for our bodies. Like you said the other
way might be to use herbal medicine, now information is easy to find. Use Google search engine to find the herbal medicine we need, the most
important thing is not to let the pain that we experience in a long time. To relieve pain in the body I suggest acupuncture, it's an ancient Chinese
medical practice that has been shown to be effective in relieving chronic pain.

What do you do to handle pain?

If it is trapped nerves,pulled muscles,ligament issue or sciatica then stretching properly sometimes helps and correcting poor posture, sleeping position along with correct breathing technique unless your issue is related to a serious medical illness or injury. Sometimes pain can be a useful tool to keep your mind focused on more important things and helps purge weakness from your mind and body but that is for another discussion.

do you consult your doctor about this? because there might be something inside your body that results that pain.

that's good not to rely in Painkillers because they will only bring more issues inside you.

It seems to me that the best way is to first of all accept the situation as it is and then make every effort to switch to something else. It helps to switch work well, routine work makes a person forget about everything gradually and look at the situation from the outside
