ibuprofen has fewer side effects than diclofenac, though it's anti-inflammatory properties are weaker. Common side effects include gastro-intestinal discomfort (stomach ache), nausea and bleeding and ulceration. These can be reduced by taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with food.
I must add though, you should follow the advice your doctor gave. If you turn to answers.com, you probably don't have the expertise on which to make an informed decision.
