Anti-inflammatories are usually the way to go unless you've got other health complications. I'd go see a doctor who'd do an MRI and get you into some more intensive therapies. Living in pain isn't fun or healthy.
Well, that is not what I've read. Also, since I take aspirin to thin my blood, it is better for me to take acetaminophen.
You read wrong - acetaminophen is generally useless for back pain - source: pretty much every person I know dealing with ongoing back pain & 30 years of dealing with my own - ibuprofen and stronger anti-inflammatories are what the vast majority take for back pain issues
Are you sure your back can handle your weight program? Depending on your issues, there may be things you just shouldn't do.
Well, it doesn't matter, since as stated above, the anti inflamatories interfere with aspirin.
No. I am not sure about my exercise program. That is what I'm trying to figure out.
