There's a reason why Tylenol (acetamino...No IB. There's a reason why Tylenol (acetaminophen) can advertise that it's the most prescribed painkillers in hospitals: it is not an anticoagulant - an important consideration for surguries. Ibuprofen, Naproxin, and aspirin (the three OTC NSAIDs) all are anticoagulant. If you're have bleeding problems, they're not a good option. OTOH, for me, they work. Tylenol does essentially nothing in the pain relief department for me. <br /><br />Yes, acetaminophen will trash your liver if taken in large doses, or for an extended period of time, but the recommendations on the label were written by lawyers, not doctors; i.e.: they have a very large safety margin built-in. A double dose is not going to shut down your liver.budhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01941800547485568839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-68680607267004181972015-08-07T15:17:13.536-04:002015-08-07T15:17:13.536-04:00This is probably too late for you Bobbi but I woul...This is probably too late for you Bobbi but I wouldn't take ibuprofen with ongoing bleeding as it has an anti-coagulent effect.<br />Hope you're feeling better soon.Hat Trickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08789313677285831256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-30489710048864612992015-08-07T13:18:59.265-04:002015-08-07T13:18:59.265-04:00Milkshake is your friend, ben there done that.

I had been complaining about it to my dentist for years. He couldn't see any problem in the x-rays. It was an upper pre-molar and the abscess had now eaten clear through to the sinus cavity. The Oral Surgeon stuffed it with some sort of granular bone graft material and the bone seems to have filled in quite well. I'm trying to figure out a way to justify the expense of an implant. I may have to settle for a bridge anchored to the somewhat questionable teeth on either side.fast richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05947715402204312013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-85881580493947475152015-08-07T11:05:36.848-04:002015-08-07T11:05:36.848-04:00Good Luck!
