I would call your Dr. or email them just to make sure. I am sure taking something won't hurt.

Hope you feel better!

just make sure to avoid ANYTHING with asprin or Ibuprofen... nyquil and dayquil helped immensely when I caught a cold a few weeks past my surgery...

What's wrong with ibuprofen? I avoid Asprin because it's a blood thinner, I avoid Tylenol because it causes liver damage. So what does ibuprofen do?

My surgeon says it can cause ulcers in the stomach... and because it has already been compromised... that wouldn't be a good thing... any NSAID medication can cause this...according to my doc... but I am finding that things are different from doctor to doctor...

My doctor said anything liquid but only tylenol, childrens liquid tylenol and benydryl works.......My cold was 5 days after surgery.

thanks I decided to take Tylenol since my coordinator sad Tylenol cold. but I only took an have of a dose was a lil scared to take a full dose lol maybe I'm a lil crazy but I am scared .

Never take NSAIDS just Tylenol. I had the flu and they said any cough syrup without NSAIDs. NSAIDS cause ulcers in stomach and mouth and esophagus. They can cause GERD too. Saline nose spray and nose saline gel for soreness. I use Ayreshire brand nose gel and generic saline spray. I used Robitussin cough syrup with guaifeneson for congestion. The most important thing is STAY HYDRATED even if you don't get your protein in and rest, rest, rest.
