Is recovery from a spontaneous pnumothorax compromised by use of ibuprofen?

@woodman– Good morning and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. That sounds very painful. From what I've read using any NSAID after a pneumothorax is not a great idea. How long https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21882030ago did this take place? When was your tube removed? Have you asked your doctor? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21882030 https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/15304-collapsed-lung-pneumothorax/prevention
