Hello, I am Dr. Selmani and I read carefully your question. Motrin is a non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and is given as a pain relief after some minor surgeries. The surgery you are describing is sort of medium level and the postoperative pain may not be dominated only with one drug such as Motrin and you may need to add another type such as Tramadol or other combination with acetaminophen plus codeine drugs or sometimes depending on your pain threshold some stronger opioid drugs. I hope this info will help you
