Increase the use of ice. Original or revision, the pain is the same and should be treated accordingly. I was allowed up to 25 mg of oxycodone for the 1st couple weeks after both of my revisions. The script was written for 5 mg tabs and I could use up to 5 every 4 hrs as needed. Be sure and hydrate well, elevate and exercise but dont overdo the strenuous stuff atv11st. Work up to it gradually
