ibuprofen

1227909 tn?1267853479 ve been taking 800mg tabs as needed for my back pain but he suggests not using Ibuprofen but instead take the pain meds. Pain at it's worse can cause stress. Stress weakens the immune system. Ask your Gastro... If your insurance covers it, get an MRI. Hot and ice packs help but they are just a temporary fix. They just camouflage the problem. You want to fix the problem. Could be something simple. Again, the MRI tells all... Good luck...
Avatar m tn Can Kidney pain be a side effect of taking Ibuprofen? I was taking ibuprofen last week consecutively for 3 days (400mg t.i.d) after laser eye surgery. A day or so after starting it I experienced mild pain/discomfort in my left flank that came in waves. When I stopped taking the ibuprofen the flank pain also stopped. The next day I took one more dose - the flank pain started again within an hour, but was gone the next day.

Avatar f tn Hi, Are you taking any pain medications just to alleviate the pain while waiting for the sceduled scan? The CT scan will be able to guide your physician in terms of management.An infection and adhesions secondary to previous surgery and instrumentation need to be ruled out. Take this one step at a time. I know this may be very discomforting. You may discuss with your physician pain management issues while tests are being done.
Avatar f tn If the anti-inflamitory aspect of the ibuprofen helps, then it probably is sciatica, and you can use ibuprofen (within reason) for most of the pain, and only use the tramadol when the pain gets intollerable.
977540 tn?1248378757 For 3 to 4 weeks now I have pain and tenderness in my upper back and when I breathe it hurts. I too am sore and tender when I touch the areas in my back. I went to the doctor and he put me on the Medrol 6 day dosage which is a steroid. It worked for 6 days and then came back and then the doctor put me on 2400mg a day of Ibuprofen which has not worked. I am going to my Oncologist tomorrow for my 6 month check up and will ask him. I also have very bad muscle spasms the past 6 months.
