    Honestly I think the Americans have it right, here.

    You end up taking fewer painkillers of you start taking them early and get ahead of the pain. If you wait until the pain is already severe, you end up taking more.

    Idk why this happens, it’s info I got from a nurse, and intuitively it feels right.
