Waiting for news on tumour surgery
1 in lower neck not too painful,but one under base of skull pressing on scary things,feels like pressure at side of head.... any advice on pain relief...been using paracetamol and ibuprofen-is ibuprofen ok or can it cause faster blood flow which could cause problems
Help!
I’d contact your hospital team. Maybe cocodomol might be a step up from paracetamol?
