    I was told by a doctor that Ibuprofen daily at 800mg for more than a week or two can cause stomach ulcers that can be extremely dangerous to your health. Someone close to me took this amount for over a month and had extreme ulcers in her stomach because her idiotic doctor told her to.

    Also, there was a recent study that came out that mentioned taking ibuprofen daily can worsen the pain you’re trying to treat.
