Question

What are good over-the-counter pills to take for Arthritis pain in my right hip and leg?

Answer 1

A paracetamol or codeine based product might be helpful but arthritis pain often needs specialist help.  I believe here in the UK you would be prescribed Co-dydromol or similar or possibly Arthrotec.  Ask the pharmacist what he would advise to get you through today but go and see the doctor.  You should have an x-ray of the hip to confirm diagnosis.  It may be just muscular in which case you would need osteopathy or chiropractic help.

Answer 2

aleve does wonders for me. you can buy them at any walgreens or walmart.

Answer 3

Have you been diagnosed as having Arthritis? If not it could be bursitis of the hip. Suggest you see a Doctor. Best of Luck
