The last time I got one, my arm ached for nearly 5 days and I didn't feel too good, but it beats having lockjaw from metal poisoning. Hang in there and I hope you feel better.

Watch out for Ibuprofen if you're a man over a certain age or have any heart issues. Your chance of heart attack sky rockets while it's in your system, even worse you if you mix it with other pain killers
