OK, its not gonna make the news. But I did punch the air and look really pleased with myself
The Mrs just shook her head at me
Its a bloke thing. She'd never understand.

Doesn't need to.
It's already been established that Lamp is a member of the landed gentry.
That's why he never gets involved in politics, it's below him.

I did post a pic of my fridge years ago covered in silly post it notes
I'll post a full kitchen shot soon - but you'll claim I've used camera trickery to make it look bigger than it actually is lol

A small family could live in that fridge. And have food to eat as well.

Yes I shoot at 60 and convert to 30 in edit, it keeps it smooth without looking like video cameras from the 80s., I cant watch plays or dramas at 60..it looks freakin weird.

If they stopped selling Ibuprofen tomorrow I don't think I'd miss it, doesn't do my stomach any good and it seems fairly useless at combating inflammation.
If needed I normally ask the doc for Naproxen, as it works an absolute treat - normally only have to take it for a couple of days and the pain has gone. Always gets prescribed with PPI's too. Find aspirin works a treat too.

I think if you turn an ankle and it swells up, the advice is rest it, ice it and elevate it. Stay away from ibuprofen and other NSAIDs - if you're in pain, then that's your body telling you something.
If you reduce swelling and mask pain through drug use then you end up walking / using the affected body part earlier than you should do - so you increase risk of injury.
There's been a groundswell of evidence building that these things not only aren't effective (presumably outside of a clinically applied setting) but that they're counterproductive, if not outright dangerous.
Funny thing is - a lot of people are habituated to taking tablets because taking something for pain makes them "feel" like they're doing something about it. And often, if you gently challenge these people, then they can get quite aggressive in defence of their un-evidenced belief that they're great.

The advice for back pain thats muscular is different. You should keep moving and yes ice and heat but being immobile and protecting it is not the way to go apparently. Depends on the strain / pain.

Yep. Movement is the advice generally - and core strengthening generally sorts out most back pain issues in the absence of a structural issue.
If people are lifetime pill popping that's dangerous , and many GPs do like to overprescribe.
