Be careful of all the suggestion your getting. It's best to read the label on the bottle. Ibuprofen was formerly called Motrin which you could only get by prescription, now it's available otc.
Many labels now contain ibuprofen which some of the folks already mentioned for pain relief, antiflamatory response.

Yes. Ibuprofen is an anti inflammatory medication. It, like all other medications, should be taken with care. Follow the directions on the bottle. Some people find that it is easier on the stomach if you take it with food.

Yes. It includes the ingredient asprin, which is an anticoagulant. This thins the blood allowing it to flow easier through the damaged area and thus reduce swelling.

Yes, ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) is part of the classification of NSAIDs, non-steriodal anti-inflammatory drugs. Naproxen Sodium (Aleve) and acetaminophen (Tylenol) are also part of this catagory.
