It doesn’t fix anything, you just don’t care as much.

Right, this does depend on the criteria for successful treatment.

Depends on the painkiller, tbf, I think there’s a Cochrane review that finds no evidence to support that paracetamol/acetaminophen is an effective medication for pain relief, if I remember correctly.

What I’ve seen is that Tylenol is moderately good for fever and headaches, but not for injuries, joints, cuts and abrasions, etc. For those you want an anti-inflammatory, like naproxen or Ibuprofen.
