Please explain ibuprofen gel?  I've never heard of it.  Btw, is  "nail 
varnish" something you put on your fingernails?  Another  Brittish/American 
vocab 
thing.  We use nail polish on our nails and varnish  on floors and furniture 
which are wooden.

I hate the codeine effect but I agree it's needed  for bad pain.

True. But  it was even more true here till heroin etc. were
criminalized. (Before then  registered addicts could get supplies, up
to a certain amount, from their  GPs.)

next they'll ban nail  varnish remover...

Is ibuprofen gel licensed there  yet?
