A member asked:

I am having knee acl surgery in a little more than a week from now, is it safe to keep taking it as i heard it can thin the blood?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thin blood: Assume you may be talking about Aspirin or nsaids. Ask your orthopedist about what his or her preference may be.
