Scientists may have found a natural alternative pain relief remedy for alleviating pain, according to studies. found.

Pain relief is an action to remove pain, distress, and oppression by blocking the pain-transmitting information from nerve cells to the brain neurons.

Acute pain is any pain that lasts less than 6 months. Most cases of acute pain are due to physical damage such as soft tissue damage of a sprained ankle or a paper cut. Acute pain is relatively sharper and severe.

On the other hand, there are many risk factors associated with chronic pain. Some chronic pains can be caused by single factors such as diseases involving nerve damage to injuries that fail to heal properly. Others may result from several factors including diseases associated with normal aging.


Over-the-counter medications used for the treatment of pain include acetaminophen (Tylenol) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Besides the gastrointestinal discomforts, long-term use of Tylenol may be additive. Overdoses or consumption together with alcohol, Tylenol can cause liver damage in severe cases.


If you are taking some over-the-counter medicine for pain-relieving, please make sure you know all the side effects of the preventive measure.

Honey is a miraculous product made by bees using nectar from flowers.

The rich golden liquid is considered one of the healthy sweet foods for replacing the use of white sugar and artificial sweeteners by many people.

Researchers on finding a natural ingredient for pain relief examined the honey effect as adjunct pain therapy.

The pain relief of honey was the result of the contribution of the numerous phytochemicals and components, including the interaction of protein, amino acid, flavonoids, phenolics, organic acid, pigment, water, and (high) sugar content in honey.


These components work together to relieve pain by exerting antibacterial, antiinflammation, and immunomodulation properties.


According to additional differentiation, honey reduced pain through the expression of the level of the central and peripheral nervous system or at the autonomic receptor sites involved in pain transmission via the cyclooxygenase pathway in nociception and pain.

Furthermore, in the examined the honey pain relief in post-tonsillectomy treatment with or without adenoidectomy, researchers launched a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that included 140 patients, who were older than eight.

Patients were divided into two equal groups, honey, and placebo.

Compared the acetaminophen plus honey for the honey group, and acetaminophen plus placebo for the placebo group, researchers found that
* According to the visual analog scale (VAS) and the number of painkillers taken within the first three postoperative days, acetaminophen and acetaminophen plus honey groups showed a statistically significant reduction of pain.

*The reduced use of painkillers differed significantly in every five postoperative days.

* Pain awoke at night is also reduced with no difference between groups.

* Honey injection exerted negligible side effects

These results strongly showed that postoperative honey administration reduces postoperative pain and analgesic requirements in patients after tonsillectomy.


Taken together, there is no doubt that honey may be considered a functional remedy for pain relief with few side effects, pending the confirmation of a large sample size and multicenter human study.
