What pain medications would you prescribe for mild ac joint djd, supraspinatis distal tendinopathy w/o tear, mild sa bursitis all in the shoulder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NSAIDs : Ibuprofen or Naproxen, for example work the best if tolerated and no specific contraindications are in place. Alternatively, Acetaminophen can be used with less anti inflammatory effect. Physical therapy should be part of the plan.
