Whether you’ve stubbed your toe, get a paper cut, pull a muscle or endure any kind of pain, we all react differently to the feeling.
However, research shows that there is a way to endure pain longer by doing this.
Ryan Seacrest shared on-air the hack that studies show can help ease the pain for a moment.
SWEAR.
Researchers had people stick their hands in buckets of ice water. Those who swore were able to handle the pain 40 seconds longer than those who didn’t swear.
It’s not appropriate, but it can help! Hot tip: don’t swear AT anyone if you’re in pain.
Do you do this already if you hurt yourself? Let us know on social: @onairwithryan.
