Hamare expert ka khayal (Verdict)
For mild to moderate pain, start with Brufen (Ibuprofen) — better cardiovascular safety. Reserve Voren (Diclofenac) for short courses (3–5 days) of more severe musculoskeletal pain prescribed by a doctor. Topical diclofenac gel is a safer alternative for localized pain like arthritis of the knee.
