If you have “ cold “& “ flu” make sure to stay hydrated, use nasal saline rinse for congestion . Vapor … your pain pill after surgery contains Tylenol already - don’t take more. Optional is Ibuprofen to add on but take with food avoid stomach upset .Rest and hydration probably does the job without anything else . Extra vitamin C , fruits , soups makes you feel better . If doubt call your doctor.
