Important it is to keep medicines to a minimum.

Diet is a lot more crucial to people's recoveries than most might think. And an 81mg low-dose aspirin can work just as well as a painkiller, without the sluggishness. Keep your chin up, and here's to a speedy recovery!

All drugs have side effects.  It is good to keep medicines to a minimum if at all possible.  Sorry about your finger accident.  I can't help but tell you about an incident that happened when I was young.  I had friends who were identical twin boys and they were a handful, always getting into something.  One day they were visiting a friends house and found a hatchet stuck in a stump.  They pulled it out and started taking turns chopping things.  They were making cut mark patterns on the stump and one said to the other, "Chop there." (pointing to a spot on the stump.  The other one did, cutting the pointing finger off below the distal knuckle.  They were always kidded about that....after the bleeding finally stopped.
