Setolac Gel is a topical medicine used to reduce inflammation and pain associated with muscular pain. It is particularly effective for conditions such as sprains, strains, and everyday muscle fatigue. It promotes the relaxation of tense muscles and improves mobility.
Apply a small amount of Setolac Gel to the affected area and gently massage it into the skin until absorbed. Follow the recommended dosage and frequency instructed by your doctor or as indicated on the packaging. Avoid washing or wiping the area immediately after application to allow the medicine to work effectively.
Setolac Gel is generally well tolerated, however, it may cause application site reactions such as redness, itching, or a slight burning feeling in some people. These symptoms are usually temporary and resolve on their own. If the irritation persists or worsens, stop using it and consult a doctor.
While using Setolac Gel, avoid applying it to open wounds, cuts, or sensitive areas like the eyes, nose, or mouth. Do not use Setolac Gel if you have a known history of allergic reactions to any of its ingredients. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult their doctor before using this medication.

Hello doctor, I am experiencing random discomfort just below the right ribcage(near about area attached in image). This arises sometime when I sit or had some meal or extensive exercise may be. While walking or standing it reduces to almost 90% or goes away unnoticeable (That's my observation) This random discomfort is from long time say 2years. I had my liver function test during that but all fine. I am confused is this a muscle cramps because it last for short period of time not more than half an hour or goes away unknowingly. Doctor what do you should suggest to get rid of this. Thanks, PATIENT
