Anti-inflammatories: Fish oil, ginger, turmeric are all stellar anti-inflammatories without the side effects of over-the-counter popular ones. A recent study showed that in patients with previous heart attack taking anti-inflammatory medication, there is a 40% increased risk of repeat event within the first seven days.

Tylenol (acetaminophen)?: You can start with basic tylenol (acetaminophen) or generic acetominophen. Ibuprofen could work as well. You can also try topical pain medicines as well.
