I'm not going to make this a court battle. This is my employment for the past 28 years. They are already taking care of me fine.
And Aleve made no difference but it was the shelf stuff. I'll ask my surgeon for Tylox, I had good results with it 2 other times and didn't cause any withdrawl when I was done with it. Morphine, not so much.
I had a tibular plateau fracture of my left knee back in 97 under workman's comp. Sat around for about 3 days with a broken leg before having surgery. Then in a cast for 3 months.
I was off work for a year (thanks to bureaucratic nonsense). Couldn't get my lawyer, the docs, and the insurance company to talk together. One of the most frustrating times of my life.
The first doc did a good job of reconstruction but didn't know jack about rehab. Had 3 or 4 other surgeries from another doc.
Ended up with a judgement of 30% disability in my left knee. Workman's comp has a schedule; 30% disability in a knee is worth X $; no arguing about it, that's what you get, which wasn't all that much.
And my lawyer was a douche.
I hope your road is easier traveled than mine.

Prescription is probably stronger than OTC, but it's still the same stuff.
Anywho... it works.
Two-and-a-half times the strength. I take it daily ... have for years.
Yikes!
Tibular plateau fracture is what I have also!
Lost wages are my main concern because I exhausted all my leave with the last surgery (600 ish hours).
I was prescribed Tylenol3 twice. I think I took one out of each prescription; I couldn't tell that they were doing anything, and I wasn't really in much pain, so I just skipped them altogether.
Yes. It's not aspirin.
