Is it ok to take NSAIDS after a tummy tuck 1 week post op?

Thank you for your question. I recommend discussing this with your plastic surgeon. Every surgeon  has their own thought process on this. I allow all my patients to use NSAIDs immediately after surgery but some believe it may increase bleeding. Best of luck with your recovery. 

if often used by many surgeons but not all... so ask your surgeon when you can start using it as it will help you get off the narcotics and avoid the side effects that come from narcotic us.  In my practice, if they have made it through the night without any problems, NSAID's can then be started.
