Muscle pain: Try a warm shower. Take 1-2 200mg Ibuprofen every 4-6 hours with 8oz of liquid or a meal. Follow package directions--do not exceed daily limit. If that doesn't work, call your Physician.

Muscle pain: Consider NSAID combined with heat from shower, bath, jacuzzi or heating pad. (Don't get burned).
