Do I have to take medications after the operation?

Answer

Painkillers as long as needed. Injections to prevent thrombosis are given for about 3 to 6 weeks.
If possible (no gastro-intestinal problems) Indomethacine or another anti-inflammatory is given to prevent heterotopic ossification (see also complicaties).
