I had all four wisdom teeth removed without anything more than acetaminophen and ibuprofen.

Are narcotics normally required to handle that?

I also had my gallbladder out via laparoscopic surgery with the same as pain relief. It's possible we just don't feel pain the same.

I was similar, but it really depends on the individual. OTC works well for some and does nothing for others.
