Aspirin for Pain "I liked it at first until I started seeing bruising on different parts of my body, like on my arm. I will discontinue use for it to stop. Not 100% sure this caused it, but when I started meds, that's when I saw it. Anyone else notice this?"

For Osteoarthritis "Aspirin is the only drug that really helps my hip and knee pain. I have had OxyContin, Panadeine Forte, and Panadol. I got nausea, dizzy spells, tiredness, and even the heavy drug didn't help as much as aspirin. Everyone is different, but for me, I get the best relief from aspirin. I take two 300 mg tablets 3 times a day, always on a full stomach, and I crush them in raw honey (hopefully supposing that would be easier on the stomach). The anti-inflammatory properties, which Panadol doesn't have, help me. I worry about the bleeding effect and am still researching it, but so far, there are no signs of that. I do take a break from them every once in a while."
