INTRODUCTIONPost-traumatic arthritis (POA) is a chronic condition characterized by a persistent or irreversible reduction in mobility, range of motion and pain. It is estimated that up to 40% of patients experience post-traumatic arthritis (POA) after their first medical procedure (e.g. dental extraction). While some evidence suggests that long-term use of NSAIDs (e.g. non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs]) may promote pain and discomfort, there are limited data available to support the use of celecoxib. In the present study, we describe a new NSAID, ibuprofen, for the treatment of post-traumatic arthritis. Celecoxib, an oral anti-inflammatory drug, has been demonstrated to be a promising alternative for treating post-traumatic arthritis. However, its use is limited by the potential side effects and the lack of evidence for long-term efficacy. To date, the only celecoxib approved for the treatment of POA has been for the reduction of pain and inflammation. Although there is some evidence suggesting that it may promote the pain-relieving properties of non-selective NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, the efficacy and safety of celecoxib in the treatment of POA remain unknown. This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of ibuprofen (NSAID) for the reduction of pain and inflammation in patients with post-traumatic arthritis and to compare it with ibuprofen plus naproxen.
