Q: i had a heart ablation and per nurse heart is inflamed and to take ibuprofen but the pain is intolerable can i take a tramadol for pain too?

: Tramadol can be used for pain in your case if ibuprofen is not effective but tramadol does not have anti-inflammatory effect as ibuprofen so you may have to take both if ibuprofen was prescribed for inflammation. There is no interaction between these drugs. Good luck.
