Yes, you can. Naproxen is an effective treatment for knee swelling, but its use should be thoughtful and tailored to your individual health situation.
Naproxen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that acts as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory to reduce pain and swelling in joints, including the knee. It can be used both orally and topically (gel), depending on the severity of symptoms and individual needs. If the knee is swollen due to inflammation or injury, Naproxen can help relieve discomfort and improve joint mobility.
However, it should be remembered that the use of Naproxen orally should be done as prescribed by your doctor, especially if you have comorbidities (e.g. kidney, liver, heart problems) or if you are taking other medications. Dosage and duration of use should be limited to the shortest possible time to minimise the risk of adverse reactions. In case of doubt or if knee swelling persists or intensifies, it is worth consulting a doctor to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
