What might be dangerous for a person to take to many aspirin?
IF SOMEONE TAKES A large quantity of aspirin, they could suffer from a painful and/or bleeding stomach or intestines. Also uncontrolled bleeding from a simple cut, as aspirin acts like a blood thinner and interferes with blood being able to clot. Also, an overdose of aspirin can cause tinitis, which is a constant "ringing" in the ears. They could find blood in their stool (poop) as well as causing possible liver damage. ALSO, aspirin can be LETHAL (deadly) if 30 - 40 tablets of regular strength (325mg.each) are taken all at once. Kidney faliure is also a possibility.
Who should not take aspirins?
People who have anaphylactic reactions, obviously, should not take aspirin. There are some people for whom aspirin causes difficulty breathing and asthma attacks. These people should also not take aspirin. People with bleeding disorders, such as von Willebrand's disease may take aspirin under their doctor's counsel. People with other bleeding disorders, such as hemophilia, probably should not take aspirin. Children should never take aspirin, as aspirin use in children has been linked to Reye syndrome, which is deadly. People with peptic ulcer disease should use aspirin with caution and only under their physician's direction. Likewise, people with history of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding should use aspirin cautiously, as aspirin may worsen or cause GI bleeding. Pregnant women should not take aspirin, especially late in pregnancy, as it may cause closure of the ductus arteriosus and premature fetal death. I'm sure there are many others, but this is all I can think of right now. I'll add more as I think it over.

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.
