Hello mylotters, I believe that many of you are aware of the danger of popping in too many pain killers. But sometimes, I really need to take pain killer to ease my headache or menstruation cramp. In my first aid box, I have many different types of pain killer, normal Panadol for mild headache and menstruation cramp, Panadol Extra for extreme headache, Panadol Cold for headache due to cold and Panadol for body/muscle ache. Come to think of it, I pop in panadol for my headache almost once or twice weekly which is really bad for health. So how often do you pop pain killer into your mouth???

i don't usually pop pain killers in my mouth. cause using too many medicines could harm my internal organs. so i prefer doing the natural methods of easing pain. Like for example, in headaches, i just fall asleep to ease the pain. and for menstrual cramps, try placing a warm compress above your pubic area then try to take a nap. i'm sure that could help.

Hello koalapenquin, thanks for your response. Yes, I do know that taking pain killer will harm our internal organs. I have tried to control my intake of painkiller especially now when I grow older. But sometimes, if my headache is really unbearable, I will still pop in my panadol. Can't really fall asleep with the throbbing pain. Cheers=))

I try my best not to use pain killers. I'll usually try to tough things out and take a nap or something till the pain passes, but for the days when that's not possible, I will take a few tylenol or aspirin. I try not to use more than a few aspirin a month but it's hard, I'm very prone to injury!


myLot reputation of 98/100. thhoon72 (172)   ranked 1,671 out of 3,624 in health  6 months ago

I also don't know why I am very prone to headache. Of cos, my headache are normally very mild or can be due to stress. I already tried to control my intake of painkiller now, maybe once a week. Previously, when I was working in a very stressful and fast-moving environment, it was quite bad.

Yep i too have pain killers atleast twice a month. I try to avoid all the situations that causes me headache, but if once i have one, i have to take any painkiller, then only my headaches goes.., Lack of sleep, loud noise, and hot sun, are some of the reasons of my headache's, which are somewhat avoidable, so i do try to keep my headaches away, n not take any painkiller..


myLot reputation of 98/100. thhoon72 (172)   ranked 1,671 out of 3,624 in health  6 months ago

Yes yes, external condition like lack of sleep, hot sun, loud noise, my kids will give me headache too just like you. But I find them quite difficult to avoid.

I try my best not to take pain killers quiet so often. When there is a pain,I try to bear it without medicines.. I do take medicines sometimes,but with doctors permission. painkillers are not good for health and it may cause ulcers in abdomen.


myLot reputation of 98/100. thhoon72 (172)   ranked 1,671 out of 3,624 in health  6 months ago

Yes, I am clearly aware of what the pain killer can do to my internal organs. But sometimes, the headache just couldn't go away even my husband has apply medicated oil or massage my head. So, still got to pop in 2 tablets of pain killer to ease my headache.

since i discovered that my frequent migraines then were connected to some scents (there is such a thing as chemical sensitivity to scents and i have it) i only get to pop a pain killer for my migraine probably an average of twice in a month. it only happens either if i grew interested in a product (which most of the time has a fragrance and i didn't know i cannot tolerate that product's particular fragrance) or somebody wears a perfume came near me. i mean i thought the etiquette for perfume wearing is to be careful that you only smell to people less than a feet from the wearer sad.

myLot reputation of 98/100. thhoon72 (172)   ranked 1,671 out of 3,624 in health  6 months ago

Yes, I have heard of migraines due to scents cos my ex-boss was sensitive to perfumes. So, we were extremely careful with wearing strong perfumes to office. I think nobody can tolerate very strong perfume. I got sensitive nose, so I will start to sneeze if the perfume is too strong.

Hi Thhoon,

Hope you are doing fine.

Appreciated your good question and will discuss
in details.

Generally all the pain killer medicines contains chemical
ingredients which will use for the treatments of headache,
menstrual cramps, body ache, shoulder pain, Joint pain
Cold and fever. All the basic medicines likes Panadol
Advil, Panadol EXtra, Panadol cold, used for this purpose
to treat moderate to severe pains.

All the pain killer medicines having the mild active ingredients
for eg Panadol it contains just acetaminophen and Panadol extra
contains little bit high strength of acetaminophen + anti inflammatory
+ Caffeine . Be remember that all this counter pain killer medicines
will not cause any problems unless if you take correct and recommended
dosages.

Try to be happy or relax as much as possible, sleep for long hours ( recommended for minimum of 6 to 8 hour daily ) doing some good exercise will always
keep your body fresh and also You never gets headache, cold, body ache etc.,

I am strongly advising you to sleep the maximum of recommended hours then I am
sure you will never experiences in this headache. If you have got headache then
drink 1 cup of hot coffee or Tea then you will feel relief from the headache, still not then go for the medicines.

Hope this information will satisfy your doubts of Pain killer medicines.

Have a nice day.

Best of luck.

Hello Binthu, thanks you so much for this very informative response. I have rated it as best response. So, if I am taking panadol for at least one time a week at the recommended dosage, it should not cause great harm to my internal organs. I will try my best to sleep more than 6 hours a day, but it is quote difficult most of the days. Thanks again, my buddy=))


myLot reputation of 94/100. Binthu (3013)   ranked 18 out of 3,624 in health  6 months ago

Hi Friend,

Thanks for your appreciation.

As i have informed you that if you are going to
take Panadol within the recommended dose, then
no problems it will not harms you anyway. But
better to take medicines after the meals.

As you have said, you have rated my responses is
the BEST, but you did not rated may be you have forgets
due to headache.

Have a nice day, and best of luck.

In spite of being a doctor I too myself pop up pain killer in my mouth very frequently, the reason being the side effects, as most of the pain killer causes gastritis and make our stomach prone to ulcer.

It is better to avoid analgesics, if I feel intense headache and I really need some medication, then I prefer paracetamol only as they are the safest and dont cause problems of gastritis.


myLot reputation of 98/100. thhoon72 (172)   ranked 1,671 out of 3,624 in health  6 months ago

Yes, I have heard that paracetamol is the mildest painkiller. That is why I only stick to it and will not take more than the recommended dosage. Thanks for your reply. Have a wonderful weekend ahead=))

According to me I would rather eperience the pain rather than taking painkillers which would led to sideeefects in the future. So according to me one should avoid taking painkillers for small pains or headaches. If the pain is very unbearable then it is ok to have one dose but the person should consult a physician before consuming such painkillers.


myLot reputation of 98/100. thhoon72 (172)   ranked 1,671 out of 3,624 in health  6 months ago

Yes, I totally agree with you. The Panadol that I have is the mildest and safest among all painkiller. I will try my best not to take if my headache is really bearable. If sometimes, I really got the killing headache, normally it will go away after taking 1 dose of Panadol Extra. Have a good weekend ahead=))
