Yes, but if there is swelling ibuprofen would work better because it is an anti-inflammatory drug.
ibuprofen is best for pain relief and to decrease inflamation.
Acetaminophen and ibuprofen are both considered pain killers, but one might be better than the other for certain symptoms. In my personal history, advil has worked better for cramps, joint pain, muscle pain, other pain of this nature. Acetaminophen works better at headaches and reducing the effects of fever. Its usually safe to switch between the two, but ask your doctor first, and then you can figure out which one works better for your symptoms.
Ibuprofen is one of the newest pain relievers on the market. It may be better for you than acetominaphen.
I always end up with neck pain after using ibuprofen.
No they are not. They are in a different class caled NSAID's
Ibuprofen is a pain reliever/ fever reducer.
Aleve and ibuprofen are not the same. Aleve is a brand of naproxen. However, both ibuprofen and naproxen function as pain relievers, anti-inflammatory medications, and fever reducers.
Yes, you should tell your doctor about the foot pain in your heel. There are many causes for foot pain and some are more serious than others. It is better to be safe than sorry.
It's because they numb pain receptors. Aspirin numbs the pain receptors in the brain, ibuprofen numbs the nerve that first senses the pain
sure - a little. It's a decent pain reliever, but it does nothing from swelling / inflammation that is likely the source of the pain. Ibuprofen helps with both the pain AND the swelling. But ibuprofen is not nice to stomachs. If you're not a regular ibuprofen taker, beware of stomach pain when you take it...
No. They are different drugs. Ibuprofen is pain killer and diphenhydramine (dramamine) is antihistamine drug.
