Some people take aspirin or ibuprofen to treat everyday aches and pains, but how exactly do the different classes of pain relievers work? Learn about the basic physiology of how humans experience pain, and the mechanics of the medicines we've invented to block or circumvent that discomfort.
Lesson by George Zaidan, animated by Augenblick Studios.
Remember there's no Nociceptors in your brain. That's why you don't feel you're brain cells dying while you watch reality shows.

currently 4am, took one, 200mg ibuprofen for a headache. got curious and searched up on how painkillers even work. was not dissapointed, 10/10.
this is 2 years later but i hope you are feeling all better
Same. I jus woke from a nap. Took half of an 8 n got curious. I forgot to eat btw lolll
I was having a toothache. Also took 200mg Ibuprofen, then suddenly got curious how these things work wonder.
Same buddy 😂
Same lol😂
Nothing is worse than a bad toothache..
+Sir Poet try brain surgery
***** I had brain surgery for epilepsy. My surgeon had to cut thru muscle and saw thru my skull to get to my brain. The regrowth of the muscles and re-fusing of the skull was the painful part.
+terrance b. try having cervical spinal fusion and the pain drip comes out overnite causing you to fall out of the hospital bed and black out from the agony, which feels like someone has lodged an axe in the back of your neck. You know you have suffered maximum pain when it causes blackout. Catching on fire was another major agony, which feels like someone is smashing you with a bunch of hammers.

ever had otitis externa? ..
I like this guy's animation.

It makes me feel high.
It reminds me of those weird drawings on Instagram, like the one where someone is throwing a baby

Did you survived couid ??
Couid?
0:40 that animation was so innocent and dumb I couldn't stop laughing at it
disklosr You have to give thanks to your nervous system, if you don't have it you are the same with the animation you laugh at.
Spongebob Squarepants Without me, my nervous system wouldn't exist. So he's the one to thank me.
+disklosr I think it's more an interdependent system. Without your brain, you wouldn't be here and vice versa
Lily Brown I find it amazing that the brain's purpose is to control the body and all it's organs and make sure they stay alive, but instead just gives total control to its owner and step back.
disklosr Eh, I think that you aren't really the one who is constantly monitoring and messaging signals to your organs 24/7. But I'm not a doctor, so I'm not going to go around saying either of us is right or wrong. I'll just stick to 'opinions.'
Is anyone feeling pain at the moment? Like that is the reason why you found this video? I got a twisted ankle :( while practicing parkour yesterday :/
+Francisco Carmona well yes
+Stephen Boque dude hahaha. I twisted my ankle just a few hour ago after New Years 😭 again :/
+Francisco Carmona what kind of shoes are u wearing? u wanna get something low to the ground... i would reccommend indoor soccer shoes
+Francisco Carmona Yeah :( I removed my wisdom tooth and took a pain a killer, it instantly killed the pain. So I wanted to find out how painkillers work :)
Tonsillitis 😞
Nature made pain to tell Man: "Hey, don't do that!"
Man made painkillers to tell Nature: "Oh, believe me, I CAN do that."
*Underrated comment**
LMAO
To be fair, we only use mild painkillers like off-the-shelf paracetamol to stop pain that we can’t help, like headaches or back pain or period pain. It isn’t about letting us actively try to harm ourselves and not suffer for it. The damage has already been done in the past: we’re just minimising they punishment for it.
who's in loss..?
A lot of people suffer from chronic pains so even when they know exactly what's wrong because of a doctor telling them the pain will almost never go away and there is nothing they can do to help it
Most people who take hard painkillers are people who suffer from chronic disease or have hurt a part of there body really badly and can only sit and wait for the pain to get better
my dad has tried to explain this to me a while back but he just went into too much detail and i never really understood it. these animations make it so much easier to comprehend. thanks!
This animation is fantastic as it is simple enough for anyone to understand what happens regardless of age or educations level. Well done again!
who else cringed when the dude pricked his finger
Me also

This is great! I am making a brochure about ibuprofen for my chemistry class, and I had to write one column on its mechanism. At first, I was reading articles that just made me want to give up. Then, I realized that Ted-Ed is here for a reason, so I clicked on this video!!!! This helped me SO much better than the near-impossible-to-comprehend articles which explain the exact same concept! I'm nearly done with my brochure and I feel pretty proud of it!!! Let's see if my grade thinks the same... 😉😉😉
How did you do??
I got an A+! :D
😃😀😄😅

I have a pharmacology exam in 3 days. This was very helpful thank you !

1. Cox-1 and Cox-2 are always present in the body but they only work when damaged cells release arachidonic acid. 2. Yes, aspirin irreversibly blocks the enzymes that are already present in the body so new enzymes that are synthesized can react with arachidonic acid and cause pain.
I hope that helps :)
That explanation answered my follow up question. Thanks!
Pain protects you from the world around you, and from yourself. Why did it hit me emotionally 🙂
Really appreciated this, all knowledge should be this simple and comprehensive
Fell on my shoulder and haven’t been able to lift it cause it hurts so much.
Had some ibuprofen and it worked so much it interested me. Here I am.
Now I know how pain works and how these magic science pills work.
So cool man...
If pain is meant as a warning system to protect ourselves and so we take care of the problems in our body, then how come women suffer pain (sometimes even great pain) when performing a perfectly normal bodily function such as menstruation? What kind of "warning" is that?
Yeah exactly
It just means they have cramps
same reason getting kicked in the balls hurts
wolf pack winter
It's precisely the same reason.
Good point. I Think the body has no conscious by itself. Every part of your body is dependable from the others and in this case menstruation is a special story of how body and cells work.
At last, I know why do I sleep very well when having painkillers .Thank you ,George Zaidand.
I'm a grown man but when I stub my toe on a wall corner I curl up in the fetal position for 5 mins due to the pain.

Awesome presentation , thank you !
Simple , understandable and deliver the idea perfectly 👏👏👏👏💜💜 outstanding work thank you so much ❤
This helped me understand my condition of fibromyalgia a little better. Of how it works more or less.
Thanks for explaining in plain english and with nice visuals.
thank u so much for this video. the animation was so easy to understand. very well done!
Animations are perfect, huge thanks from Armenia
I love this animation! very simple and easy to understand. Good job!
THIS IS INCREDIBLE AND SO SIMPLY PUT!! THANK YOU!!! :D
awesome video, thank you very much
Adorei a explicação!
I find if I go into a form of meditation and concentrate on the pain and the area it is in, I can reduce the pain. It's hard to explain but I try to imagine the pain, like the images in this video, and imagine calming them down and letting them float away, and it does seem to ease the pain yo some degree! Also I am often in pain as I have Fibromyalgia!
You can one hundred percent control pain if you know it's all just in your head.
@@jaylyn1471 Not if one of your arms is chopped off.
Thank you for the explanation
It's great how a 4 minutes video summarised a lesson of 60 minutes.. Thank you =).

Who is watching this after taking a pain reliver?
Me!
Well explained. Thank you
Thank you for this very interesting video. I belive I now have a better understanding of how pain works.
"Through pain i gain strenght"
Anyone else decided to search how pain relievers work, right after taking pain relievers?
Thank you so much, it's such a great video
I have to thank you so much for the creation
That guy's going to keep walking with that bear trap clamped to his leg and I don't think there's anything we can do about it!
Serves him right
Can you explain why Ibuprofen works a lot better for a toothache than a stronger painkiller like oxycodone? I have a throbbing toothache and I regularly take oxycodone for another medical problem so I took 1 for my toothache and it did nothing so then I had 2 ibuprofen and the pain went away 20mins later.
Thanks for helping me. I got 5 teeth extracted and just downed 2 ibuprofen instead of the narcotics and I feel sooooo much better
For Toothache best medicine is Clove oil , get from Indian grocerry store it cost you around $3 and dip qtips into it and hold that qtips affected teeth . You will see how instantly help . For best result 3 times btush your teeth a day with different toothpaste mean take one Colgate other Ayurvedic ( Dabur toothpaste ) and Sensodine . Then use clove oil . You will be amazed
Thanks for the lesson
words of thank are not even enough to thank you !!
If you are normal... Aw shit
One thing that always was a mystery to me is when you have a minor injury such as a cut or scrape, you don't feel it until you consciously know you did it or physically looked at it. It has briefly covered at the end but not explained. Do we know why this happens?
I'm no scientist. But the brain is a very powerful thing. Ignorance is bliss. And if you don't know, you usually carry on in the same perceived state you were in pre injury. Granted it's a superficial injury. Kinda like with placebo effects. You tell someone it's going to work, they expect it to, so now their brain is geared towards "this thing is doing what they said it'll do"
Great explanation & visualisation
Thank you for the info
As a wise man once said,
"Feel PAIN, Accept PAIN and Know PAIN...Those who do not know PAIN will never understand true peace." Guess he had a point.

no thanks *takes pain killer*

PEINNN!! but no thanks, I would stick to painkillers
BRUV I just got that time of month pain on a whole other level
i love videos like this, it makes me realize our human bodies are so awsome!!!
Thanks. That was informative
Here because I went to a metal concert last night and I head banged my heart out, so now my neck is sore lol
No regrets tho🤘🏽🤘🏽
I was looking for 3:21
Thanks dude, I know this but just need a confirmation
Does it work to die without feeling pain
I take Ibuprofen 3 times a day and it really always works to block away my painful synovial osteochondromatosis
Thanks for the very informative video!!
Who else cringed at about 1:23?

Thanks a lot
thank you so much :D i always wondered about that
So if aspirin permanently blocks COX-n, like for how long?
5 - 7 days
@@michellewarner2634 Well, not so _permanently_ after all
If you take enough tylenol you wont feel pain...ever again
Boy Graffity I’m not certain AT ALL and am taking a wild guess right now but I’m assuming the Cox-n enzymes are replenished
Ibuprofen is better
Is there some advantage to ibuprofen’s approach of not permanently deactivating the enzyme as opposed to aspirin?
I was curious about this as a aspirin wears off too doesn't it!
@@lozzylols I think that just means the aspirin stays in the system and blocks COX1 and COX2 for a longer time than it does in Ibuprofen.
Thanks so much for sharing ! Have a good night , good health and safety holidays ! 🤙
Very very informative and excellently animated video.........
Animations make knowledge more attractive....
I just love to watch Ted videos again and again........
If we can understand pain, we can build artificial nociceptors which receive input from a simulated body, essentially emulating nervous stimulation in the simulated world.
What a sad creation that would be.
I think this Talk could have had quite a bit more information
Wow such a deep research
This is such an entertaining and educative video. I effin love it.
It effin loves you too

Thank you, very interesting video.
Great video!! Thank you
Anybody else here pacing before bed, waiting for it to kick in?
Thanks for this video I was wondering how the medication knows where the pain is so it can fix it. Turns out it doesn’t and goes all around the body which is interesting.
awesome explications! thumbs up. thank you!
oh great video, thanks!

i was always so interested and confused about this!!
Much love man!
I'm watching this sort of videos just for learning other languages using subtitles in the settings. Try this next time you're bored.
I never get bored.
Wouldn't you choose a video with simpler language?
I agree that this is very helpful for vocab
As useful as pain is it would be nice to be able to stop it on cue in the event of a false alarm or such a time when damage cannot be prevented. Like how you can hold your breath up to a point but eventually you'll start breathing automatically again.
You can, it's called anger. If it's strong enought it will allow you to ignore pain.
Damian Wójcik A person can overcome pain using any emotion, or concentrating on a peaceful place, but the adrenaline we produce when we are in danger, or for some reason need to react (it might be anger, but more often it is fear) is the best way to numb pain naturally... It's either that or PCP, but PCP is not natural and not good.
Its called adrenaline
Sooo well described
Wow great video. Was so easy to understand
how does Paracetamol work ? what's the difference between Aspirin and Paracetamol
believe it or not. we don't know for sure. I'm doing an assignment on ibuprofen and paracetamol and I was shocked when I heard it
Paracetamol is an antipyretic(fever reducer) & analgesic(pain reliever).
However, aspirin is an NSAID aka Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug. It has 3 uses. In addition to being an antipyretic and analgesic, it also reduces swelling(inflammation). This anti-inflammatory property isn't possessed by paracetamol
After some research i found out that Paracetamol slows down the generation of Prostaglandins only in the brain, while Aspirin stops the generation of Prostaglandins throughout the body, this can cause other body organs to stop functioning properly.
YO I AM DOING A ASSIGMENT ON IT TOO. Brother hook me up with some information. If you have any reserach can you email me it. I would love it if you could help me out.

Why is this video age restricted
Cox-1 and Cox-2 maybe, TH-cam’s algorithmic workings are rather strange
Awesome lesson

Okay, now tell me why I felt pain when I watched the animation push their finger into the needle.
