Yeah, keep taking that much ibuprofen and blow your kidneys out.

I'm taking 200 mil Ibuprofen but that's four pills for 800 mil. Upsets my stomach. The good news is the Meloxicam seems to work. Or maybe that's just placebo effect? I'll know for sure when I try to lie down and sleep tonight.I stopped at Academy Sports on the way home and bought a new pair of boots. I've been wearing 511 uniforms for several years and I really like them so I decided to try their tactical boots. I picked up a light weight folding stool with a shoulder strap for $9.00. I accidentally drove over my last one. These so called "dove" stools are super handy for squirrel hunting.
Man a lot of folks here struggling with pain. Dan when that happens to me it's usually from putting too much weight on my head while turning in bed popping a bone out of place where the chiro has to put it back straight in line. Sam how you like the new boots? I need to get some more work boots as the old ones I have are rubbing against the back of my ankles now. You have any cbd cream, oil or gummies to take for pain? I take the oil and gummies and they help. Turmeric pills help me with inflammation and IGF1 tincture helps me me recover way faster than I would on my own too. Yep it all costs but the results are worth it. Brett that's looking good!
Been using this product since the late 60's. My grandmother used it for everything, bug bites, bruises, antiseptic for cuts, and arthritic body parts. Works very fast, I put it in a mist bottle for places I can't reach. It's in the horse section at TSC. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/bigeloil-liquid-gel-liniment-14-oz
The quacks want me back for an MRI. The nutter thinks I may have torn my right rotator cuff. Last year when I talked to a different PA at that joint he was hipped on me having "impingement" in my shoulder joint. Same thing happens if you take your car to two different mechanics. I did paper work all day and drove one boat tour which was really fun because today was international talk like a pirate day! R!
Had to go to the med center for a nasty infection in my leg. My usual hot water and epsom salt bath treatment did not work this time. All started from dropping a beam and hitting my shin, taking off a fair amount of skin and meat. Hardly even felt it at the time. Being diabetic, I don't heal all that quickly in my legs or feet.

Could be it was “just” an impingement last year and later you tore it.I had arthroscopic surgery for RC impingement. It was worth doing.The thumb I injured almost two weeks ago looks almost normal now, and I am using it more. But it’s still quite weak and it makes clicking sounds, though not as often as before. I can pump the Blue Streak, carefully; waiting more before I try cocking the P3.
