I have found aldi s own paracetamol extra far better than the cocodemols high strength off my doctor so sticking with them from now on. I used to take 8 a day cocodemols high strength useless and now I only take one in the morning and one before bed of the aldi paracetamol and almost pain free overnight

There are loads of similar products but all non-steroidal anti-inflammatories can harm the stomach. The kindest is Naproxen apparently but is only intended for short-term use. Otherwise, one has to rely on paracetamol, very safe at normal dose rates.

HTH?

Here's a good and short video about how sesame seeds help. It's worked for me since I began mixing them into my morning green smoothie about a year ago. Nobody seems to know about this, so I'm telling as many as I can! youtu.be/FshyNZ6a09U

My doctor advised cycling, and it worked well for me, in 15 years I've hardly had any problems. (Just my hands now)
