Paracetamol for me is better for headache and ibuprofen is better for muscular pain.

It seems like you’ve mistaken what “strong” means.
But I shouldn’t have said “long term”. The dangers of each are different. Ibuprofen is relatively safe to go a bit over the recommended dose, but not over the recommended duration.
Paracet is relatively safe to go over the recommended duration, but not the recommended dose.
