post operative pain

With the advancement of medical science goes along with it the lowering threshold of  pain. We have conquered pain  and have diminished it to the point of  painless diseases. But the drawback is more and more patients need higher and higher dosage of these medications. We cannot tolerate even a tinge of pain.
We used to administer ordinary pain relievers for simple surgeries like herniorrhapy. But nowadays, some patients need opiates to be relieved of post operative pains.
There will come a time when we will be needing injectables for a simple migraine headaches.
