SummaryA double-blind trial was carried out in 22 professional footballers to compare the effectiveness of 1200 mg. ibuprofen and 3.0 g. aspirin daily in the treatment of soft-tissue injuries. A total of 60 injuries were treated. The duration and severity of pain were significantly reduced on ibuprofen compared to aspirin, as was the time needed before players returned to training or were fit again for match play.
