Done Surgery For Polidonal Cyst. Constant Cough, Fever. Taken Proventil. Can Ibuprofen Be Taken?
My son, 18 yrs old, 220 pds had surgery last week for polidonal cyst and had a tube down his throat during surgery and is suffering from a costant cough. He took a puff of Proventil about one hour ago and wondering if he can have Ibuprofen with that. He has a low grade 99.9 fever and it has come and gone all week.

Hi
Due to endotracheal tube,your son might have got infection and irritation.
He can take Ibuprofen,but should be taken after food.
As he is having fever,i prefer Paracetamol combination tablet.
Give him a good antibiotic
Wish him speedy recovery
