Post op pain: Non narcotic pain medications include naproxen, diclofenac, ketoralac and several others. Tens units can also be useful. See your doctor for other options. Hope this helps.

Yes: No steroidal anti inflammatory agents such as toradol can be used. Intravenous Acetaminophen is also an option. Either of these types of drugs can be given either intravenously or orally. Talk to your doctor about your concerns so they can prescribe the best option for you.
