If I recall correctly, "pain and suffering" is (or at least on live was) coded as an invisible mob, which would become the source of damage when the damage couldn't be attributed to any other source.
Historical records I've found seem to include "Pain and suffering tries to strike YOU"
e.g. see http://www.whodany.com/poh.html
[Mon Jul 16 19:19:32 2001] You have been knocked unconscious!
[Mon Jul 16 19:19:32 2001] Pain and suffering tries to strike YOU, but misses!
[Mon Jul 16 19:19:32 2001] You died.

Emphasis on "strike" -- not hit or kick. I don't ever remember being kicked or bashed by pain and suffering, and cannot find any log records when searching for live logs that would indicate as much.
However, on p99, it seems to be coded as an invisible warrior class, which not only "hits" instead of "strikes", but is capable of kicking, and likely due to its level, can stun with that kick.
I suspect that pain and suffering shouldn't be capable of kicking or bashing or anything!
