After learning to unconsciously associate
particular faces with different
levels of pain, subjects continued to report more
pain when presented with the high -
pain face and less
pain when presented with the low -
pain face, regardless
of how high the heat was set.
In
particular, recent research shows that some
of the anti-inflammatory
pain drugs known as NSAIDs (ibuprofen and naproxen sodium) do nt always bring women the same
level of relief they provide men.
