Whats Wrong With Current Pain Protocols?

March 16, 2017Ryan Mansell

Over 10% of Americans rely on NSAID drugs to relieve their pain on a daily basis. That’s over 30 million Americans who rely on pain-relieving medications daily for chronic pain conditions. That number doubles when adding cortisone injections for pain relief. What many are unaware of is the common side effects using these NSAIDs for pain relief. 

NSAID side effects:

Stomach pain and heartburn, stomach ulcers, bleeding, headache and dizziness, ringing in the ears, allergic reactions causing skin rashes, wheezing, throat swelling, liver or kidney problems, high blood pressure, leg swelling.

Cortisone injection side effects: 

Joint infection, nerve damage. tendon weakening or rupture, thinning or death of nearby bone, repeated injections causing deterioration of cartilage within a joint. All these side effects are the reason numbers of injections limited. Additionally, 10,000 to 16,500 die every year due to GI bleeding resulting from the chronic use of NSAIDs. 

Avoid these serious side effects with our natural approach to pain relief. 

Have a great week!
