I am a radiographer in an ER. We frequently have to move patients with broken bones to get our pictures.
The elderly have a surprisingly high pain tolerance. I've seen elderly patients move limbs with obvious breaks to accommodate our needs without a peep.
People with the least pain tolerance seem to be the younger crowd, ranging from 15-30. They whine and wail from the slightest touch. And more often than not, the ones with no breaks whine and scream the most.
