Question

Did you know? Pain threshold varies enormously per person — through genes, hormones, training and culture. Women statistically feel pain more strongly, but also tolerate it better than men. Painkillers don't work for everyone — some people lack the gene variant that makes it possible. For 5% of people morphine is a placebo.
