Ibuprofen is basically the German strategy. It's not super strong, but everything else is only for extreme pain.
Get your wisdom teeth pulled? Ibuprofen. Broke some bones? Ibuprofen.
Burn victim? Maybe some opiates.
The strategy works. Better to have some pain, than to get hooked on opiates.
- hef19898 3y agoYou do get opiods after surgery so, if you want. Only for limited periods of time so.

- overstay8930 3y agoGerman doctors will unironically tell people to drink tea and go on a walk to treat mental illnesses.
- carlmr 3y agoYep, I would say this is one of the worse parts of the German medical system. Many medical professionals don't take mental health that seriously.
