It’s just an anti-inflammatory
Medications are for the sick and/or injured, not as an enhancement to perform better . I found that out the hard way when I wanted to ride STP really fast in one day, but my knee was holding me back. I asked a pal of mine about it, and he suggested I take an anti-inflammatory every 50 miles. The good news is I did get through the day in an amazing record time. The bad news is I screwed up my knee even worse not knowing it until the next day when it looked like an elephant moved into my leg. It took about 5 years for that injury to go away. Given the same choice today, I would have sacrificed my great time, rode to a level of tolerable pain (or maybe not at all) and lived to set the record another day. Pain is your bodies way to telling you there is a problem. To cover up symptoms is as smart as putting electrical tape over the red warning lights on your dashboard. You may not notice the problem, but the problem is still there. Sooner or later you will have to deal with it. Fur
