Would you take Tylenol?

I have a lot of medical anxiety and searching the net isn’t helping me. I had 2 glasses of wine last night. I have a raging sinus infection and need some pain relief. I can’t Advil due to some stomach issues over the summer. Would you take Tylenol today? Some sites say it’s ok, some say avoid. Ugh!

Yes, I would. You might find more relief from a medication specifically for sinus pain (probably a mix of acetaminophen and a decongestant).

[urbancowgirl]

Yes, I would take it. Have you ever tried a sinus rinse? I find they really help. I like the NeilMed squeeze bottle.

Yes, I tried it last night and it helped. I am getting ready to do it again.

Typically yes. Also the good kind of Sudafed and a hot shower/ hot compress on your sinuses.

I’d also get some Afrin. It’s the only way I can function during a sinus infection (along with the good Sudafed from behind the counter).

Yes. And I would take an extra steamy shower or two today.

I hope you feel better! Sinus stuff is the worst.

I'm not sure why you wouldn't, honestly. The wine should be through your system by now, and even if it wasn't I think the risk is pretty low that tylenol would cause any issues. I think the main thing is that you don't combined them on a regular basis.

So yes I would, and I hope you feel better!

Yes.

[scout8]

Yes, without question.
