Most effective otc pain reliever for aching and feet because of physically demanding job?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
OTC pain reliever: You can try Naproxen 500 mg bid c food. This is also known as aleve (naproxen). This is a NSAID that can help with the pain and possible inflammation. Also getting some comfortable shoegear with padded insoles may help with the pain.

See pedorthist: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) can help with both pain relief and in reducing inflammation. Examples are ibuprofen (like Advil, Nuprin or Motrin), Naproxen sodium (like Aleve, (naproxen) Naprosyn, Anaprox) or Asprin (such as Bayer, Ecotrin, Ascriptin). Avoid NSAID's if pregnant or allergic to them. In that situation can consider acetaminophen.
