"indomethacin helped with severe hamstring stiffness and severe pain including sciatica. I still have pain but it is bearable. Unlike when I tried naproxen and ibuprofen, they didn't help at all."

"I have a script for Indomethacin - 3 times daily - as needed for gout symptoms. I have been struggling with Sciatica for the past year. I have had Epidural steroid injections 3 times over the past year, each time the relief of pain seems a little less and the pain returns in a few weeks. I recently had a right foot pain and considered it a gout flare-up. I took the Indomethacin as prescribed for 2 days and the right foot issue cleared up. I also noticed that my sciatica pain was reduced significantly."
