Motrin is an anti-inflammatory drug. Whether it will provide relief or cure in your situation depends on the underlying cause of your knee inflammation. Talk with your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.

What is the treatment for tooth ache?

Toothaches typically don't go away with at home treatments. If the tooth is cold sensitive, you can use a fluoride rinse or desensitizing toothpaste. If the tooth is throbbing or hot sensitive you can take motrin to reduce inflammation and pain, but you will need to see a dentist. If it is the gum tissue that is sore you can do warm salt water rinses, but should still get a professional cleaning to remove the irritant. Motrin will work short term for that as well. If your motrin is 200mg you can take up to 4 at one time- that is the equivalent of 1 prescription strength motrin.
