Dr thanks since I have undergone a gastric bypass they tell not to take any NSAiD pain killer except paracetamol is hot fermentation OK?
Brief Answer:
Yes alone ice packs will suffice

Yes dear, then you can take cold fomentation along with paracetamol in case you still have pain after a day of ice pack application.
But most likely you will not need to take the pill.
All the best.
