ibuprofen

Avatar f tn I have a shoulder problem and used to be on strong pain killers, but my doctor told me to change to heat rubs!
Avatar n tn Hello, It looks like urethritis or inflammation of the urethra due to alcohol based gel. Wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. Also wear cotton undergarments. Application of mild corticosteroid cream and oral antiinflammatories like ibuprofen/acetaminophen are also helpful.
Avatar m tn Sorry about your injury. Using ibuprofen gel or topical NSaids does not necessarily have to be covered. You can ask your doctor about that or the pharmacist where you frequent. A few points, remember to not mix with other nsaids, avoid touching your eyes, mouth or open wound, WASH YOUR HANDS after application, use only the amount the doctor has prescribed for you, don't shower or swim or wash the area for at least an hour after putting it on, and try to keep the area cool.
Avatar f tn Sometimes we have to piece together many things to get some pain relief. I use prescription gel, patches, ibuprofen, nortriptyline, & some narcotics.

Avatar f tn Has anyone heard of any reactions to ibuprofen while pregnant?
Avatar f tn Get some aloe vera gel for the burn/blisters (pure aloe is best.) Also Tylenol or ibuprofen will help the pain a bit. Drink plenty of fluids. Orange juice is a good choice. I had a very bad burn once that caused me to be in the ER. They gave me IV fluids and told me about the ibuprofen and fluids. They specifically mentioned orange juice ... maybe for the potassium. Also, I'm sure you're already aware, but tanning isn't a good thing to do.

1534233 tn?1523388856 The top of my left shoulder is quite painful to the touch. I've tried ibuprofen tablets and gel, also paracetamol and codeine tablets. I've previously had some worries about chest pain being angina although all tests for this are negative. The pain goes into my neck a bit when I press my shoulder, I'm fairly happy this pain is not heart related. But wonder what I can do to treat it.

Avatar n tn Do you have any neck problem history? If so,see orthopaedic doctor to get diagnosis,then alternative medicine can help.Don't worry!
4545793 tn?1394592544 I like homeopathic teething remedy. You can. Get them at the health food store. They're little pellets that dissolve immediately on the baby's tongue. My pediatrician said they're safe. I'll see if I can find mine and somehow get a picture to you so you know what I'm talking about.
397118 tn?1219762250 I have upper back pain too and we tried a lot before and in addition to the Norco - first we tried the cortisone shots - have you tried that? (what kind of injury go you have) The chiropracter helps - but I need to go often - 3x a week to get regular relief. Het helps mine - hot baths, heating pad and sometimes I have to lay down and hang my head and upper back off the side of the bed.
Avatar n tn s about 6-8 weeks,Anti-inflammatory such as Ibuprofen will help to release the swelling,Initial treatment should consist of an ice pack,but,now use hot pack for circulation.the gentle use of the quadricep stretch,I also recommend the use of sports support to speed up recovery time.Anyway,good luck!
Avatar n tn I'm 25 weeks and I would use like a pain relief jel on my back. Or u can try hot water bottle just don't put it anywhere near ur tummy.
486038 tn?1300063367 slightlybroken.... My mom was upset that they wouldn't see me sooner, as we know they can. They got me in for an appt. in a week the first time. Why would the heat make it worse? Perhaps like I feel worse after a hot shower or hot temps? As far as ibuprofen, I try to stay away from it and use tylenol but that's not helping right now. I have stomach issues, so I do have to be careful I've found. Aura... were do you find biofreeze? Regular drug stores or Walmart? Is is colored?
Avatar n tn ( I would like to suggest pure aloe vera gel to you, the reason i suggest this is because aloe vera gel is fantastic in healing skin, it is also soothing, reduces redness, is a natural anti bacterial, and makes the skin lovely and soft.... at the same time it will not make your skin too 'wet' either.

Avatar n tn Scaling and root planing can be rather uncomfortable from my experience. This is something that is done once in a great while if there is some tartar build-up along and just under the gum line in areas where a toothbrush and floss do not fully cover. Sometimes if you are new to a dentist he or she will have you go through this to bring you up to his or her standards. Dentists, of course, do not use the term "pain", but call it "discomfort".
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 m tn ve tried vaseline, aloe vera, an anti-chafing gel, neosporin, cetaphil, and cortizone. Nothing significant happened from using any of them. I spent months using them too. I talked to a doctor who told me aloe vera should heal it in a few weeks but it didn't. He also said it didn't look like a fungus and its definitely not an STI/STD. Does anyone have experience with this or have any ideas on what I should do?
