NSAIDs and DOMS
=NSAIDs and DOMS=
''Main article: [[Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness]]''
 
Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) generally occurs between 24 and 72 hours after unusual or severe exercise, such as racing a marathon or downhill running. The use of NSAIDs to prevent or treat DOMS has been widely researched, with somewhat mixed results. Even scholarly reviews of the research have differing conclusions<ref name="Cheung-2003"/> <ref name="Smith-1992"/> <ref name="Baldwin Lanier-2003"/><ref name="Howatson-2008"/>. My conclusions based on the available research are:
* The most common NSAIDs (Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen (Paracetamol), and Aspirin) are unlikely to help with DOMS.
