- Right now, you're in a cast; but moving forward you'll need some analgesic medications to help with the pain. We already gave you codeine, and we'll recommend that you take extra-strength ibuprofen until the pain subsides. Additionally, I recommend that you take a calcium supplement to enhance the strength of your bones so this doesn't happen again.
- Thanks for the lesson, doc.
- Ibuprofen works by stopping the production of pain-reactionary pathways in your body. This means that it inhibits chemicals that cause pain. The lower the rate of this chemical, the less pain you feel!
- For Calcium supplements, these little pill-shaped vitamins just help improve the levels of calcium in your body. Because calcium helps with bone growth, repair, and development, this supplement will help you heal completely!
- But be careful! Taking too much strong ibuprofen can cause your body to build up an immunity to it, which can make it less effective. Make sure you're following exactly what the label on the box says! If you feel dizzy or lightheaded, stop taking it and try acetaminophen instead.
- Thanks mister!
- For the calcium supplements, they may cause gas or constipation, although these are rare. Just make sure you're hydrating enough!
