Should I take a muscle relaxer before a long flight?

Speak to your doctor before the flight for appropriate pain killer or muscle relaxants that may help you through the flight and take these 1 hour before the flight. Otherwise over the counter analgesia may be helpful if you have found they have eased your pain before.
