When was the last time you reached for a painkiller without a second thought? Maybe it was for a nagging headache, sore back, or just to get through a stressful day. You’re not alone—most people turn to these medications as a quick, easy fix for discomfort. But if we’re honest, how often do we stop to think about what all those little pills could be doing to our bodies?
In some cases, pain relief is a necessity, especially for those with chronic inflammatory conditions, recurring flare-ups, and those who may have undergone surgery or experienced serious injuries. But what about the times when we’re just self-medicating without medical advice? A couple of pills here and there might seem harmless on the surface. But over time, the frequent use of these painkillers can put a strain on our kidneys in ways we don’t always realize.
In our own practice, we meet more and more young people showing signs of kidney damage linked to regular, unsupervised painkiller use. Imagine being 18 or 20 and dealing with the side effects of medications you thought were harmless. It’s becoming all too common. Does this mean people who are genuinely on pain medications need to be scared? No.
This isn’t about scare tactics. Instead, it’s about understanding how to use painkillers safely. In situations where pain relief is essential, there are ways to manage and reduce the side effects. But if you’re someone who reaches for a pill without much thought, maybe it’s time to reassess that behavior.
The National Kidney Foundation reports that long-term use of NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) is linked to a 32% increase in kidney disease, affecting even younger populations.
At Team Luke, we have created this guide to help you find a balance, stay in control of your health, avoid the overuse of painkillers, and in genuine cases that need pain medications, learn how to manage the use and side effects of painkillers.
