in regards to NSAIDS michelle 8/1/09 3:23:42 PM ET
Hi, I just wanted to comment about using NSAIDS (aleve, ibuprofen, advil). I am a nurse and have worked for quite a few years with orthopedic surgeons. They advise their patients who are runners to take up to 800 mg of ibuprofen about an hour before running, especially if they are using it treat prexisting discomfort.
