>American medicine is cruel. I'm pretty sure if I asked any Norwegian doctor for opioids after a mole removal I'd be laughed out of the office.

  It sounds like Op’s wife is having more than a mole being frozen off. He references a 6” incision.

    I think Op meant six 1" incisions(hence the plural), but I could be mistaken.

  Right on. My wife had some tremendous neck pain for days when we lived I Germany. Something that here in Mexico would have been treated by ibuprofen , until it receded. The German doctor basically redered her to a masseur (sp?) Prescribing massages until the pain subsided. After some days, it did. The culture of "quick fix" for everything that we have adopted in some western countries is biting us back. That's why you have so many unhealthy people (like overweight or even diabetic people who dont want to do any kind of effort so prefer to be filled with pills)
