Recent : Recent onset of joint pain in multiple joints can be diet an inflammatory, infectious or metabolic condition. Rheumatoid arthritis, lyme disease and gout are three illnesses in those three categories. One with these complaints should: seek medical attention. If someone were taking 4 Ibuprofen 3 times a day it would be at minimum a prescription dose if they are 200 mg tablets and this can have side effects and co-morbidities. One taking this dose of Ibuprofen should seek medical attention.
