It's important to remember that medical research and drug approvals constantly change, and there may have been new advancements since my last update. So, talking to a healthcare provider or cardiologist for the latest information on anti-inflammatory drugs and how they could help lower the risk of heart disease is essential. They can offer personalised advice and treatment options based on your medical history and requirements.
Long-term, persistent inflammation in the body, known as chronic inflammation, can contribute to various health issues and diseases. Unlike the short-lived response of acute inflammation to injury or infection, chronic inflammation can have lasting adverse effects on your health. Here are some common indicators of chronic inflammation: Persistent fatigue and feeling tired even after a night's sleep can be linked to chronic inflammation. Conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis are marked by ongoing joint inflammation, resulting in pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. Generalised body aches and pains may be signs of chronic inflammation. Over time, inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract can cause symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation, and bloating. Chronic inflammation might weaken your immune system, making you more susceptible to frequent recurring infections. Conditions like psoriasis and eczema involve ongoing skin inflammation, leading to redness, itching, and flaking.

Persistent inflammation can impact the onset and worsening of allergies and allergic responses. It can harm blood vessels and lead to hypertension. Persistent inflammation has been linked to weight gain and obesity, as well as mood disorders such as depression and anxiety. Additionally, it may have a part in neurodegenerative illnesses like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, resulting in cognitive decline. Furthermore, inflammation can disrupt the body's ability to regulate blood sugar, potentially leading to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Inflammation in blood vessels is associated with atherosclerosis and an increased risk of heart disease. Airway inflammation can cause conditions like asthma, resulting in breathing difficulties. Conditions such as fibromyalgia and chronic back pain may also involve an inflammatory element contributing to ongoing discomfort.
Persistent inflammation can impact the onset or worsening of allergies and allergic responses. It can harm blood vessels and lead to elevated blood pressure (hypertension). Prolonged inflammation has been linked to obesity and weight gain. Some studies propose a connection between persistent inflammation and mood disorders such as depression and anxiety. Long-term inflammation may be involved in neurodegenerative illnesses like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, resulting in cognitive decline. Inflammation can disrupt the body's ability to regulate blood sugar, potentially contributing to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Persistent inflammation in blood vessels can cause atherosclerosis (hardening and narrowing of the arteries) and raise the risk of heart disease. Chronic airway inflammation can result in conditions like asthma, leading to breathing difficulties and wheezing. Conditions like fibromyalgia and chronic back pain may have an inflammatory element contributing to ongoing pain.
