I’ve been dealing with lower back pain for a few weeks now, and I’m starting to wonder whether I should try switching NSAIDs. I’ve been using ibuprofen for years (just over-the-counter), but it feels like it’s not cutting it anymore. A friend suggested naproxen, and my cousin swears by diclofenac gel for joint pain. I’m kind of overwhelmed—how do you even decide between these options?

Absolutely understand how overwhelming it can be to choose the right NSAID, especially when what worked before, like ibuprofen, isn’t helping much anymore. It’s smart to consider alternatives like naproxen or diclofenac gel, but I’d recommend checking with your doctor first to discuss your symptoms and any side effects. I always do a bit of research too, almost like strategizing in Cookie Clicker —gathering info helps make the best move!
