Medical directory. Information on Pain Reliever and description medicationPain relievers are group of the anti-inflammatory, analgesic (tramadol and other) and antipyretic drugs. They are frequently called nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs or NSAIDs. NSAIDs find their chief clinical application as antiinflammatory agent in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and other nonrheumatoid arthropathies. In the treatment of non-articular rheumatic cases NSAIDs are indicated in periarticular conditions eg frozen shoulder (capsulitis), bursitis, tendinitis, tenosynovitis and low-back pain. NSAIDs can also be used in soft-tissue injuries eg sprains and strains. In general, NSAIDs provide only symptomatic relief from the pain and inflammation associated with the disease and do not arrest the progression of pathological injury to tissue during severe episodes. ![]() Medical directory description medication
