Living Healthy (27) – Acne

Henry talks about acne this week (Living Healthy Podcast #27) but he started off the podcast with a caution about “non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.” There’s a bunch of these (prescription and OTC) and they’re used to reduce pain, fever and inflammation. Arthritis sufferers tend to rely on this group (Motrin, Ibuprofen, Aleve, etc.). Henry points out that last year, more people died from complications associated with these drugs than died of AIDS in the U.S. He says tough it out and take two Tylenol.
