It depends: It depends on the type of injury and the medical condition of the patient. All medications can have side effects and a patient can be allergic to any medication. Over the counter medications such as tylenol, (acetaminophen) advil, or Aleve can help pain and swelling but please read the product labels and/or consult with your physician to decide which medication is right for you.

Rest and ice: Not sure where your injury is? (shoulder, hip, calf, ankle?), but resting and ice is always recommended. Good nutrients (for healing), sleep, and hydration are also recommended. Please restate your question more specifically. Thanks!
