Ah ok, I did question why I didn't get any anti inflammatory meds sent home with me. So just to naturally wait for it to go down then? X

Re: meds? ...
Ibrufen is a blood thinner lovely and right now to encourage the wound to heal you're wanting the blood to clot to make the scab to heal the wound so its not advisable to be taking any anti-inflamatories lovely. To help the swelling ice-packs help enormously! Just don't put them near your incisions. Xx

I wasnt allowed ibruprofen with my intial op but I was with my revision!

So strange we are all given different advice. I had the same surgeon as you in the same hospital & was given Tramadol, paracetamol & ibuprofen & told take it if I needed to but no more than 3 a day! I didn't take it though stuck to the other 2 given.
