A member asked:

My body is always aching. i feel better after eating or having some ibuprofen but it upsets my stomach. what can be wrong?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably nothing: Think how often you eat and drink non alcoholic beverages. You may have lower blood sugars, not exercising enough also is a clue. Consider getting a physical exam and some basic blood work. Hope that helps.
