yes!. ibuprofen is an NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) as well as an analgesic (pain-killer)!. proper wound care should be your top priority so the swelling (and pain) will subside sooner!.

and get any debris out!. it will impede the wound healing and may even cause infection!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

put some ice in a washcloth and put it on your hands, get some disinfectant cream or something like neosporin!. they are probably becoming infected, wash the cuts out before you put cream or ice on them, if they change color or get bigger go to the doctorWww@Answer-Health@Com

ibuprofen only helps with the pain not the swelling!. As the others stated, ice pack the hands a few times!. This will help the swelling!. Use some peroxide and anti bacterial cream on the wounds!. If they continue to get worse then consult your Doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

this may hurt but this what you do get a bucket of water put tons of salt in it to then if you have neosporin on it go to the doctoe for that peble becuase if you get it out you will bleed bad and cry like the bigest baby known trust me it like your worst fearWww@Answer-Health@Com

Ibuprofen and ice should help , as far as the pebble goes keep your eye on it because there is a good chance of infectionWww@Answer-Health@Com

You'll be fine!. First stop the bleeding, and then ice them!. That should get the swelling to go down!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yuck!. The only thing I can think of is to see a doctor if the swelling doesn't go down!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
