If you or someone you know is experiencing severe physical and mental pain, please be sure to contact a medical professional or a mental health specialist immediately. The use of drugs needs to be carried out under the guidance of a doctor, and self-medication may bring serious risks. ### Basic knowledge about pain relief drugs (for reference only)： #### 1. **Physical pain** (need to be selected according to the type and cause of pain)： -**Mild pain** (such as headache, muscle soreness)： • Over-the-counter medicines: Ibuprofen (Ibuprofen), Acetaminophen (Paracetamol/Tylenol), Aspirin (Aspirin). *Note: Long-term or excessive use may cause gastric bleeding, liver and kidney damage. * -**Moderate to severe pain**： • Prescriptions: Tramadol and Codeine, which need to be prescribed by a doctor after evaluation. • Powerful opioids: Morphine, Oxycodone, etc., are only used in serious conditions (such as cancer pain) and are at risk of addiction. #### 2. **Psychological pain** (such as anxiety, depression)： -**Short-term relief**: benzodiazepines (such as lorazepam/Lorazepam) may quickly reduce anxiety, but they are prone to dependence and need to be strictly followed. -**Long-term management**: antidepressants (such as SSRIs) take several weeks to take effect, and the dose cannot be adjusted by yourself. ### Important reminder： -**Do not take the medicine by yourself**: The side effects, interactions and contraindications of the drug need to be professionally evaluated. For example, an overdose of acetaminophen can cause liver failure, and abuse of opiate drugs can be fatal. -**Psychological pain requires comprehensive intervention**: Drugs cannot solve the root cause alone, and need to be combined with psychological counseling or treatment. -**Emergency **: If you have self-harm or suicidal tendencies, please contact the emergency service or the mental health hotline immediately. ### Suggest action： 1. **Seek medical attention immediately**: The doctor can assess the cause of the pain and formulate a safety plan. 2. **Call the Psychological assistance hotline**: For emotional support, 24-hour service is available in many areas. 3. **Avoid online home remedies**: “rapid remission” drugs with unclear ingredients may be life-threatening. Please be sure to take health and safety as your primary consideration and seek professional help in a timely manner.
