If you take aspirin as a blood thinner and then take it for pain do you overdose?

The amount of aspirin usually "about half an aspirin", taken to serve as a blood thinning agent is very small compared to that used for the treatment of pain, so the difference it would make should be negligible, However you can allow for it by taking the amount taken for the blood thinning from the dose for the pain. In any case you don't have anything to worry about.

Can aspirin and Prednisone be taken together daily?

What other aspirins can you take that do not have aspirin?
Aspirin is Aspirin. When people say "Take an Aspirin," they are actually referencing the drug itself. If your question is "What other Over the Counter pain reliever/blood thinners can I take that do not contain Aspirin," then I would have to ask what purpose you need it for. As for Pain Relievers, anything containing Acetaminophen/Paracetamol (Tylenol), Ibuprofen (Advil), or Naproxen Sodium (Aleve) may be of some help. If you're looking for an OTC Blood Thinner, Aspirin is your best bet, however Ibuprofen may also be of some help.

How many aspirin pill do you take to feel numb?
There is no straightforward answer to this question. It depends on the condition you intend to take aspirin for, on the degree of the pain, your pain threshold, your physical size, your ability to metabolize aspirin (the condition of your liver, as your liver is breaking down aspirin), just to mention a few. However, aspirin is not a medication that you can take too much of. It is not only for treating pain, inflammation, and help in feverish conditions, but, it is also a very powerful blood thinner. That means it prevents blood from clotting. While that is helpful in some medical conditions, it could be life threatening if you have a bleeding problem, and even if you don't, aspirin's side effects could be associated with stomach ulcer, bleeding of stomach, brain, even kidney failure. Another problem of overdoses is that aspirin is an acid (salicylic acid), and it is capable to change your blood's pH level (making your blood more acidic than it should be). The condition is called metabolic acidosis, and it can be very serious. Therefore, it is wise to ask for a medical advise and not to overstep the appropriate dosage.
