Do not worry ,ER has managed the fatal part and you will come okay, maintain fluids,and medicines prescribed and dont lose confidence.Advil can be at times harmful and be cautious enough to avoid in future.For that matter avoid all Pain killers of NSAID group and take pantaprazole for 6-8 weeks to heal ulcer.
For whatever joint or body pain you have been taking advil,in future rest on physical therapists,local muscle relaxant gels/anti inflammatory gels local application they are reasonably effective for pain instead of oral medicines
