Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most widely used analgesics to treat inflammatory pain. Despite their efficacy, recent studies show that NSAID use in early acute pain can prolong pain and inflammation and delay their resolution. We suggest using analgesics without inflammation-related properties in early acute pain instead of NSAIDs.
