Ibruprofen is your best bet as it is anti-inflammatory as welll as an analgesic. The virus will be out of your system in around 4 wks and you'll be immune to it for the rest of your natural.

I've still never had mumps. Part of me wants to avoid the pain, but another part quite likes the idea of this sterile malarkey... | |

Oh I've had mumps already, and although Nairn's apparently still protected by my antibodies, he hasn't had his MMR yet and Findlay starts school in 2 weeks - how shite would that be for him to miss potentially the only fun bit of school because some forumer gave him mumps  | |

I've never had mumps, but I did have an MMR… when I was about eight years old. I have a feeling it was widely introduced a not inconsiderable length of time after the point where you're supposed to have it. | |

I had the MR when I was wee - not the MMR...no idea if it was measles or mumps I got vaccinated for
ps - nice pic Gary THermo...i'd post the ones of me with glandular fever and an allergic reaction to Cephalosporin antibiotics...but I honestly looked like a leper  | |

Honestly, my brother fell over and cracked his face a belter but refused to have his photo taken, but when he was all healed he was choking to see what he looked like
Those kind of photos are amazing | |
