Both are anti-inflammatory.
Years ago, I was told the difference between Aspirin and Tylenol.
Aspirin “turns off” the pain at the inflammation allowing the tissues to “relax” and heal.
Tylenol “turns off” the pain receptors in the CNS allowing you to relax and do things normally; the tissues remain inflammed and painful...you just don’t notice it.
The difference is that Tylenol doesn’t turn off the inflammation pain and by allowing you to do normal things, you aren’t allowing the tissue to relax.
Doctor told me, take Tylenol when you need rest like when you are running a fever.
Take aspirin when you need to be active like dealing with arthritis.
YMMV
