Minor Aches and Pains

It's something we all experience, sometimes on a daily basis - minor aches and pains. They can take many forms; a dull headache, a backache or a little bit of neck pain.There are many things that can cause these minor aches and pains, and most of them are things we do on a daily basis. From having a little too much fun the night before to sleeping on the wrong type of mattress, there are many factors contributing to our minor aches and pains.

When it comes to minor aches and pains, depending on the severity of the pain, some of us may decide to just grin and bear it, while the rest of us will run, not walk, to the nearest medicine cabinet.

If you're one that can't stand even those minor aches and pains, most over-the-counter medications will do the trick. You can either choose from oral pain relievers in the pill or liquid format or if you are susceptible to stomach issues, you may want to look into a topical pain reliever.

Oral pain relievers come in two formulas, acetaminophen (like Tylenol) and anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen (Advil, Aleve and Motrin). Be aware that oral pain relievers can produce side effects like stomach ulcers or internal bleeding.
