Tylenol (acetaminophen) or aspirin: Is your husband on anti coagulation. If he is on Coumadin or some of the newer factor ten inhibitors, he can use Aspirin which inhibits platelets and will facilitate bleeding, but tylenol (acetaminophen) can be used also and this will not. Either way, neither will hurt once in awhile.
