Day off Work - Sore Throat :(

You drive a bus? You don't happen to be that really miserable bar steward that drives the 49 down Welford Road?




(I know you aren't a bus driver really)

You've edited that now I see.

Unfortunately Mondays minor case of the sniffles has turned into a full on case of man flu. and I can't have time of work, I don't work.

Nope, though I did do the direct ride to work this morning so I must be really suffering.

Ibuprofen won't really help in this case. It's an NSAID that's primarily designed to deal neuromuscular conditions and it is not recommended for use in conditions related primarily to inflammation without a clear neuromuscular cause.

Paracetamol would be the better bet in this case.

I don't know about the correct medical opinion on this, but ibuprofen definitely works for a sore throat. Apparently drinking pineapple juice is also more effective than cough syrup, and I've recently discovered chocolate works quite nicely.
I've had a sore throat since yesterday, but I haven't felt the need to take time off work. I am, however, not a man.
