pain
"My doctor prescribed Tramadol for a painful displaced shoulder 50mg twice a day. My shoulder healed but I then realized that the constant achy legs and feet that I was experiencing, especially at bedtime was completely gone and I continued to use.  I read up on this medicine and did become apprehensive, but when I visited my Doctor and explained the situation she said there was no harm.  Yes, if you don't use regularly, you will get uncomfortable side effects, but when my legs and feet start aching again, it takes about 2 doses before it goes away again.  My Doctor didn't not speak of any harm in taking this medicine on a regular basis.  It does also seem to keep me on an even keel."
