What medication can be used for arthritic pain, if i am unable to use anti inflammatory medication that is not habit for ming. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tylenol, capsaicin: Paracetamol (aka acetaminophen or Tylenol) is not an anti-inflammatory medication, and it may be used for arthritic pain. Other options are creams containing capsaicin that may be applied to the skin over the joint. You’ll want to mention your plans to your doctor so s/he may take your new medications into account with regard to any other medications you’re taking, now or in future.
