Drugs such as ibuprofen (Advil) and naproxen (Aleve) reduce inflammation by blocking enzymes that are involved in causing inflammation in different parts of the body. These drugs are effective at reducing swelling and pain when taken before an injury occurs. However, some people may experience side effects such as stomach aches or headaches when taking these medications regularly for long periods of time (such as for chronic pain).

QUESTION
Pain and Inflammation Management Drugs;

ANSWER

Pain is a very common symptom in humans, and there are many ways that it can be managed. The use of drugs to manage pain has been around for centuries, but recently, we have developed new strategies that allow us to use drugs more effectively.

Inflammation is the body’s response to injury. When an injury occurs, the body responds by producing chemicals called cytokines that signal neighboring cells to repair the damage caused by the injury. These cytokines also signal other cells in the body to produce their own cytokines, which can cause inflammation. However, if this process is interrupted or reversed before it leads to swelling or damage, it can help reduce pain and inflammation
