What medicine can i take for muscle pain from yoga?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Herbs, homeopathy,AI: Muscle pain from yoga means you likely strained a muscle. Anti-inflammatory meds like Aspirin & Ibuprofen can give quick relief but can create stomach bleeding & irritation so are best used sparingly. Curcumin from turmeric & zyflamend are good natural anti-inflammatories. Homeopathics like arnica & traumeel gel are very safe & effective. If you get this pain often you are overdoing it- go easy!

See below: I agree with dr. Baker. I often use traumeel or tiger balm with patients.
