I have knee pain. Which painkiller should I use?

Asked by Male, 36 ยท 2 months ago

For knee pain, you may use a simple painkiller like paracetamol, which is generally safe for most people. If pain and swelling are present, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen may help, provided you have no stomach, kidney, or heart problems. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult a doctor to identify the cause and receive proper treatment.
