Tough question. Hard to give a quick answer. Physical. The way I see it is: since physical pain isn't the same as suffering, I only suffer if I have difficultly tolerating my pain. I'd rather be happy and in pain but not suffering than not in pain but depressed anyway.
But that's assuming that the condition was permanent. The problem is that physical pain without suffering usually very quickly becomes physical pain + suffering and the more physical pain the more suffering (/psychological pain).
Mud pie. I don't like dirt because it gets in my eyes.
(Apologies for the long first answer, it was a very difficult question for me).
Serious question: Which is worse too much confusion or too much ignorance?
Less serious question: Would you rather hum annoyingly all the time or whistle annoyingly all the time?
