How Did Ancient Humans Deal With Unbearable Pain?

Before modern medicine, even ordinary injuries could become unbearable—and there was no pharmacy or modern anesthetic to turn to. This documentary explores how ancient people used plants, surgery, cooling, bandaging, alcohol, and other methods to deal with pain. How did they know which plants could help, and how did surgeons operate when pain control was so dangerous? You’ll discover how ancient observations slowly became medical knowledge and eventually influenced modern pain relief. Watch until the end to see how a simple ancient remedy became part of the long journey toward the medicine we use today.
