Aspirin for Pain

This drug was incredibly helpful for my chest pain. I hadn't warmed up properly before going swimming, and ended up in a lot of agony as a result. I took mefenamic acid but it didn't do anything to help. I couldn't sleep because the pain in my left chest and back was so bad. But after taking 40 mg of Aspilet/Aspirin, I finally got some relief!

Aspirin for Joint Damage causing Pain and Loss of Function

Unfortunately, aspirin causes me to have severe subcutaneous bleeding. As a result, I've had to get tested for hemophilia multiple times (spoiler: I don't have it). It's frustrating because doctors always brush me off and say that aspirin couldn't possibly be the culprit. Maybe if more people spoke up about these sorts of adverse effects, there would be more awareness and research on the matter.
