Does an anti-inflammatory help to relieve muscle spasms?

Question:

Answers:
No, you need a muscle relaxer for that. Anti inflammatories do just that; they decrease inflammation, such as joint pain in arthritis patients.

yes depending on what muscles

Yes, by helping the muscle to not be inflamed, it helps to prevent the muscle from constricting and causing spasms.

Yes,most definately.
I just recently had that problem and both my family Dr and the Chiropractor I finally went to told me this.
My family Dr gave me muscle relaxers and they didn't touch the spasm but after 4 manipulations by a Chiropractor I started feeling much better.
I was given the usual lecture on how to use my back muscles properly and told to use warm heat on my muscles and to use my Ibuprofen.
Both family Dr and Chiropractor told me it could take months for my muscles to start feeling good as new but THANK GOD,after 2 weeks I almost feel cured.
