50 Ways To Relieve Almost Every Type Of Pain Possible (inflammation, joint pain, headaches and more)

Acute pain is used to describe a pain that has a sudden onset and limited duration, while chronic pain refers to longer-lasting types of pain.

Most people reach for painkillers to address their problem, as these drugs reduce the painful sensation. The most common ones include opioids, NSAIDs, and paracetamol, all of which have been associated with a wide range of side effects.

To relieve pain without risking the onset of detrimental side effects, opt for natural remedies like herbs, spices, foods, or a simple exercise.
