Several years ago I fully seperated my left shoulder when I fell off a dirt bike. I had shoulder to "repair" the shoulder. It's a lot better, but still not right.
A few months ago it started hurting again one day after I did shoulders. Now it acts up, sometimes just a little, sometimes enough to cut my workout short.
My plan is to not do shoulders for a month or so. But is it OK to take 200-400mg ibuprofin pre-workout? I'm just concerned about toxicity to kidneys, liver, etc.

Ive been taking 400mg ibuprofen pwo for a while now with no problems.I also have bad shoulders.My suggestion guzzle tons of water.You should also look into a glucosamine,chondroitin product.The use of this combo paired with 2grams of fish oil 3x a day has eliminated my shoulder pain.

Apparently the ibuprofin IS a problem. Had a blood test and my liver values were elevated. Only thing I'm taking that could do this is the ibuprofin. So I need to find something different for my shoulder ligament problem.

Ibuprofen taken for imflammation - max recommended dose 3200 mg/day.
I HIGHLY doubt taking 200-400 mg is causing increased liver enzymes.

Take Cissus RX
It works wonders, My 67 year mother has gone virtually pain free in less than 3 weeks, she had the usual Aches in the bones as well as Tendonitis.
She was not able to sleep and had to wear braces on her forearms and wrists.
"Cissus also possess analgesic properties on a mg per mg basis comparable to aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen. Cissus quadrangularis constitutes one of the ingredients of an Ayurvedic preparation, `Laksha Gogglu', which has been proved to be highly effective in relieving pain, reduction of swelling and promoting the process of healing of the simple fractures as well as in curing the allied disorders associated with fractures"
Cissus Rx is hard to find as it has been out of stock for a while wherever I looked.
BB.com should start carrying this product."Schmoke and a pancake?"
"A Pipe and A Crepe?"
"A Bong and A Blince?"
Well..Mr Powers, I see there is no pleasing you.
