First time taking ibuprofen. That's amazing.

Somehow my throat is pain in the mouth[1]. Probably due to cold or flu or something I don't know. My throat is in pain even if I'm not coughing.

So I decide to take a pile of ibuprofen (which I bought months ago with no reason, just like to have some for spare). Guess what, it works and works pretty fast.

I'm glad I'm living in a time that medical is built on top of science, not eating this grass and see either you die or heal.

1: I was about to say pain in the *** but on a second thought I decide to not do that.

@skyblond Seeing your excitement, I recommend you to not like NSAIDs too much. They are considered safer than they are by too many people. While taking a few tablets will do nothing bad, more frequent use of NSAIDs is suspected to cause some bad diseases such as Crohn's, which is incurable. The main problem is damage to the epithelium of GI tract. So don't overuse them.

@causa_arcana Thanks for the tip! Generally I don't want to rely on certain pills since I will probably go to hospital if the syndrome lasts for a long time. For my throat, over the weekend (which is not good due to the cold), I think that one pill of ibuprofen is all I take.
