It's odd but I have always used the maximum strength, coated Bayer Aspirin. That is two 500 mg tablets, for so very, many years, for everything that hurts, has fever or chills, you name it.

My first MS specialist said he thought that the anti-inflammatory effects of the Aspirin helped my MS. I assume other OTC anti-inflammatory drugs can do the same.

Also I looked up on Wiki or Google what foods are inflammatory, and a list of those that are not. I try to watch them too. The list surprised me.

I get aches and pains from the normal ageing process, and all the falls and breaks I have had since a child that come back to haunt me. So Aspirin helped me there too.
