I have experimented on myself quite a bit with THC. It isn’t a pain reliever in my experience. I have had a headache or body pain, used some, and then I was just like “fuck, that’s all I can think about now.”
It’s great to distract from general malaise or boredom, but won’t help if anything painful is actually happening.

Yeah especially because countries like Switzerland and New Zealand have banned the practice.

Why? Aren’t they basically sea bugs?

Whether or not they feel pain is a huge ongoing debate

Yes, they are, but why not minimize any possible pain? They’re not going to taste any different.
The way to go is oysters. They have no pain receptors or even a cluster of nerves that could be considered a rudimentary brain. You can eat them still alive (raw on the half shell) and they’re none the wiser.
