I recommend against Tylenol for any who drink alcohol a fair bit.

Take an NSAID instead.
We do not like the side effects. Honestly did not take any with Covid after the first bout back in 3/2020.

But, have had surgeries and to take the pain meds (hydrocodone) they always have Tylenol in them. I make a point to ask for the highest does of the hydrocodone because no matter the dose of that, the amount of Tylenol is the same.

When I had shoulder surgery, they gave me a script for 45 pills of oxy.  I took one.  I think people whine so much about "pain" the MDs overprescribe.  And it wasn't as if I was suffering not taking more.  They gave me a pain block shot and I could feel that wearing off so I took an oxy as a precaution.  And sure after the oxy wore off I had some achiness, and going to the bathroom was nearly impossible too.

I take ibu or Aleve before I start baseball camp, and during.  Either helps with soreness a lot.  Otherwise I go a year without taking any of it.

We use Naproxen if we need it, but that's very rare. We also keep Voltarin around the house as a topical thing for arthritis or other minor pain. Again, rare.

Last time I used any pain meds was when I broke my leg/ankle on Christmas Day. It was hydrocodone pre-surgery and then tramadol for about 3 days after surgery. Pre-surgery was much more painful.

NSAID = NonSteroidal AntiInflammatory

Naproxen and Aspirin are both NSAIDs also.  Acetomeniphen is hard on the liver.

ED ZACHERY, Surgeon gave me 60 oxy 325 mgs for after hernia surgery in 2016. I told him I wouldn't use them he said "oh yes you will" ,pffft! Whiners is right,I was uncomfortable but if there is severe pain I want to know that something is wrong.Special with sensitive areas like that.It killed my oldest brother in 2013 - infection/sepsis. Overperscribing is right,I did break a few in quarters to help me sleep occassionally,but most I gave to a brother and a friend who had bad neck/back problems/surgery/fusion. But I dolled them periodically specially to a friend - I could see him getting addicted,fortunately he never did

Does anyone have any explanation for the rises and falls of COVID infections?  I've heard the weather one, but it doesn't seem to correlation well at all, to me.

Agree, they don't really seem to follow weather seasonality, at least not in the way we've typically associated weather with flu and colds.  It's weird.

covid has been down for the last 6 months with no sign that the current covid strain will rise beyond current numbers

there might be a slight increase when cold weather gets here but right now thats just a guess

there are so many unreported cases out there that the recorded  numbers are just not reflective of the real new case number but thats because the current strain is very mild

in short unless another strain comes along which is much stronger this pandemic is over
