you should just take the tylenol like your doctor suggested. medications like ibuprofen and aleve all have the potential of causing bleeding (just like aspirin). there is nothing over the counter. if you need something stronger than tylenol you will need to contact your medical provider for a prescription; perhaps one that has codeine.
busted head open now have 8 stitches. tylenol isn't helping not allowed to take anything with aspirin. what can i try? . the emergency room staff did not prescribe anything for the pain. they said take tylenol and stay away from aspirin. the tylenol is not helping. what over the counter pain reliever can i try?
