I take tylenol then do a light workout...moving the muscles helps relieve the stiffness,there is a scientific reason why...something about amino acids maybe...I just know it works...and tylenol or motrin always do the trick.

Actually active recovery is a great thing. Nutrient rich blood flow to the area in a light pumping workout does wonders for sore muscles(sore from a workout, not hurt sore).
