What are rhe best medication for elbows legement inflammation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Initialtreatment r: Is still nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication such as ibuprofen, naproxen, etc. For people who are allergic to this class of drug, drs will try steroids to decrease inflammation, opioids are only given to very severe pain and nsaids have failed or is not enough. Always consult your dr if no relief is found after taking otc med, there might be something going on such as fracture or infection.
