In : In general, yes. However, i would be more worried about the possibility of infection with a fever after a lung surgeon. You should consider following up with your surgeon, primary care physician, or local emergency room for further evaluation.

Yes, : Yes, one can typically take Aspirin w/acetaminophen since they lower fevers & relieve pain in different ways. However, it's more important that you go see your surgeon to determine why you have a fever after lung surgery. Taking Aspirin & Acetaminophen to get rid of your post-operative fever is like whitewashing a stain on the wall. Go see your doctor now! don't wait! and don't gamble that your fever will go away on its own. Good luck!
