What’s the problem with ibuprofen?

• chrisseaton 4y ago
  Ulcers, heart-attacks, kidney damage. But also they mask pain via reducing inflammation and the point of pain is to let you know something is wrong. Like water it’s fine until you’re swallowing pill after pill.

    >Ulcers, heart-attacks, kidney damage Also, tendon injury/tendonitis seems linked to ibuprofen use. It may delay other kinds of healing (bone fractures, etc)

    Not disagreeing with anything here, but are these specific to trail racing?

      No, but if it's something that happens commonly in that context it makes sense to call out when in that context.
