Ibuprofen for muscle strain

Common Questions and Answers about Ibuprofen for muscle strain

ibuprofen

Avatar m tn Similar pain returns again when I become extremely erect, but only when extremely erect - not just partly erect or not erect at all. The pain is internal like a muscle strain or damage and not a skin irritation in any way, which would explain why this only happens when I become very erect. This happened about 2 weeks ago and is still occuring when I become fully erect, although the pain seems less (although still there.) Is this muscle strain or damage? What should I do about this?
624829 tn?1240755671 Thank you very much for your response to my post...yes, I did take Ibuprofen for 2 days and gradually the pain disappeared...it might have been a muscle pull as I figured out it could have been with my dog on the leash and a sudden pull by him as my right side jammed into a wall pillar and caused a bad dent/bruise on my forehand. Thanks all the same...God bless.
Avatar n tn You can apply local pain gel with gentle massage and hot foment with warm water. Take, over the counter pain medication and muscle relaxant for couple of days. Keep observing for swelling, redness and consult an orthopedic doctor if it persists to get checked up. Drink lot of water and take complete rest. Do update on your progress. Take care.
Avatar n tn I called my PCP today for a prescription for Ibuprofen. I am hoping a stronger dose of ibuprofen will help with the pain and healing. Does anyone have any suggestions? Has anyone had this kind of injury?
Avatar f tn I am not a doctor and cannot possibly advise you on taking care of your back. It could be a simple muscle strain or it could be something much more serious. I strongly advise you see your doctor as soon as possible as only he/she can diagnose the problem and offer the correct treatment. I hope you feel better soon.
1412776 tn?1283111549 v=6Y-LXX13iN8 As to stop the pain take a ibuprofen of tylonal. Somthing of that sort. If the pain is still there for more than 12 hours or intensifys go straight to a doctor. Unless by than you can tell it's just soar muscles then no need to rush to the doctor. Also if you do devloup a bruisse in that area you may have internal damage and you should be taken to the er right then and there. Hope I'm not scarrying you. I'm sure it's nothing more than a torn muscle.
Avatar f tn Hi everyone, I'm 6+ weeks & I've been suffering with shoulder strain for days now!!! My own fault for refusing to put my heavy shopping bags on the floor of the train during rush hour.. Next day left shoulder was killing me and now virtually no lateral movement, doctor recommended shoulder exercises which have helped but I can barely use my left arm, wrist feels numb and tingly, left shoulder stiff..

Avatar m tn it could be a illuiginal ligamental strain or muscle strain both are hard to differ from actual abdominal pain and for your back...it would make sense that your back would hurt to...
Avatar n tn Hi, I have chest pain about 4 inches below my armpit in the rib area. I've been experiencing this for about 4 months and the pain is constant. I don't know if I pulled a muscle or perhaps it's some type of tumor. Could you help me?
Avatar f tn All those muscles are just like any other muscle in your body. Try ice pack and ibuprofen. Hope it feels better soon. If not, speak to your doctor to be safe.
Avatar m tn The neck pain in your case appears to be due to muscle strain or tension. This is caused by everyday activities like bending over a desk for hours as in studying, placing too high or too low computer monitor, poor posture while watching TV or reading, sleeping in an uncomfortable position. A good physiotherapist can help relieve this type of pain. If yoga is not done under proper guidance or if the steps are not followed properly it can cause muscle strain.
Avatar f tn Hello, my dr has put me on ibuprofen and omneprazole for suspected left shoulder muscle strain. Upper back left side was painful and i had numbness and tingling in left arm. Problem is now i am having severe pain all down my left ribs and extending a little around into my back. Feel very unwell when i get this pain which comes and goes and is like a gnawing pain. Eating does not affect when i get it, it comes on anytime. No problem in the bathroom dept.
Avatar n tn Hi, The causes of shoulder and arm pain are- frozen shoulder, muscle strain, Parsonage turner syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, shoulder bursitis, nerve compression or shoulder tendonitis. Please go for MRI of spine, and arm and consult a neurologist and orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. Hope this helps you. Take care and regards!
Avatar m tn it is possible that you may had one or more of your shoulder muscles get a tear or strain that was not necessarily bad enough for you to notice for more then a short time, however if you continue to work out or overuse that muscle before it properly heals the muscle will start to build up scar tissue as a defense mechanism and can get worse and worse as i know all to well. Im not a doctor or an expert on this i just have first hand experience with it.
Avatar n tn Hello, It seems like a muscle strain or a ligament sprain.Apply some warm compresses on the thigh and take some anti-inflammatory pain killer like ibuprofen or diclofenac.Also apply some topical muscle relaxant.If however the pain persists,then it is important to rule our nerve compression which can also present with such features.A consultation of an orthopedician in that case will be the best. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted if you have any additional queries.Kind regards.
Avatar m tn Hi, I masturbated quite hardly about four days ago and before masturbating, my penis was erect for quite long time and i pushed my pelvic muscles really hard to get a harder erection. After masturbation I am having a strange feeling of strain at the base of my penis. It is more prominent on the right side where penis is connected to the body and I am having problems in pushing my pelvic muscles like I used to do. It is not very painful but i can feel that some feeling is present.
Avatar m tn I do know of people with low level gallbladder issues who have watched their diet for years (low fat) and have done very well, except for a few twinges. But if you're having problems with exercise and movement it's possible that you have a low-grade inflammatory reaction going on and you're feeling it because of the way the organs are packed together.
Avatar m tn you can still be constipated even if you poo regularly. Really, it's true. Is your poop hard and sometimes in small bits or massively huge? Both are signs of your digestive system and intestines moving slowly. I'd try seeing if you add some fiber to your diet, eat more fruit, try some foods that cause a laxative effect (cabbage? grape juice?) and see if it helps. If the pain gets worse, see your doctor.
Avatar f tn I would be very interested to hear what diabetes specialists have to say on this because prior to this many doctors (fully aware of the type 1 diabetes) recommended daily ibuprofen for various problems such as back pain. Who's right? Would appreciate hearing from anyone who actually had a problem caused by ibuprofen, links to reliable sources of information on the topic, or opinions from professionals.
Avatar m tn I was wondering if you could actually pull or strain a throat muscle through getting choked like how you would get a dead leg when struck or pulling your hamstring running too hard.
