When you experience pain such as migrant, tennis elbow, frozen shoulder, muscle sprain, arthritis, what do you usually do without second thought.

80 % of people choose to  take Advil and Tylenol.  The pain is to some extent relieved.   But after 4 to 8 hours, the same pain creeping back and getting worse.You take more pills and more pills or go to your doctor. What will your doctor do? Prescribe you some stronger pain relief medicine such as tramadol, Tylenol with Codeine. If this happened before 2004 and you have Arthritis, your doctor would prefer to prescribe Vioxx produced by Merk pharmaceutical. Voix is Cox-2 inhibitor and was marketed as the better alternative in choice of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs due to fewer instances of digestive tract problem.

After 10 month of taking these medication, one day you find you have gastro bleeding because you have taking too much Aspirin,   liver problem caused by Acetaminophen (Tylenol), cardiovascular problem, heart attack caused by vioxx.   In 2004, Merk had to withdraw vioxx and discontinue the drug due to severe side effect. With estimates of Americans affected by Vioxx ranging from 88,000 to 139,000, and about 30 to 40 percent of those numbers likely resulting in death.

How about natural herb?

People have been chewing willow bark to ease inflammation (the cause of most aches and pains) for centuries.  Now willow bark is sold as a dried herb that can be brewed like tea. It also comes as a capsule or liquid supplement.  Willow bark can also cause stomach upset, may slow down your kidneys, and can prolong bleeding time, because Willow bark contains Salicin, which is similar to the main ingredient in aspirin.

Acupuncture helped relieve pain associated with osteoarthritis, migraines, and various  locations of chronic pain.
