Is excedrin like ibuprofen

Flannery needs Excedrin Headache #357...

Medical stuff:
Fracture = broken. We have lots of terms to describe the fracture, but a fracture is a break.
People can walk on a broken ankle if they are tough enough to take the pain and the tibia is not where the fracture is.
She would have had an x-ray about a week after the surgery to confirm it was well healing.
Plaster? We more often use water activated fiberglass these days. Less heat as it cures, sets quicker.
Very likely she would have been put in a walking boot.
Advil = Motrin = ibuprofen. Each pill is 200mg, so three were a good choice, four a bit better. Redose after six hours if the pain has returned.

I like your story. Your caveat about discontinuities at the top was way too understated, they were jarring, but I get it. I've been there myself, but please remember to come back and clean up later, you're going to throw a lot of people off.
OK, big problem: Never, ever, ever take Advil and Tylenol together! Ever! Tylenol is Acetaminophen, it's a blood thinner. Advil is Ibuprofen, it's an anti-inflammatory that will also irritate your stomach lining. So between the two, you'll end up with a bleeding ulcer. I think the standard recommendation is to separate them by at least twelve hours, though I just stick to one. So unless you're TRYING to mess Hayley up even worse than she already is (bruised, battered, hung over), PLEASE stick to one or the other.
PS: Yes, this is a pet peeve. Yes, I've personally had a problem with both drugs. Google it if you don't believe me.

Loved the story - but just as an aside, aspirin actually prevents liver damage. Acetameniphen (Tylenol) is what is traditionally known as dangerous for the liver, and non-aspirin NSAIDs such as ibuprofen have recently been linked to stroke/heart attack risk increase. lol I know this has nothing to do with erotica, and your story is fantastic - but if it were me writing this? (and I do write a ton - I'm actually a professional author), I would have had Jack (the athlete) share his prescription pain killers with his victim, since he's most likely on them (athletes are always getting hurt) and since opiate prescriptions, added Tylenol not withstanding, are the only things that don't increase the risk of liver damage and heart attack/stroke. Plus... let's be honest. They're also the only medications that actually work. And also - it's the very least Jack owes him. ;)

Kate and I want to thank AnotherChapter, ThatNewGuy and the other anonymous commentator for defending us so well. We will keep the anonymous comment down below on how our narrative was tedious and distracting, just as we keep most negative comments - but not all. Some are so damn offensive and have little, if any redeeming value.
Maybe the anonymous commentator misunderstood what we were saying when we wrote that we removed some of our earlier stories because the comments were too caustic. When comments call my wife a whore and physically threaten us or 'anyone who cheats', we think were feeding something dangerous. Our 'Jake's Tale' was a story that ended with the husband forgiving and reconciling with a wife who had an affair - too many of the comments could only be considered outlandish and evil. So, we removed the story.
Anon wrote, We know that someone asked for aspirin, but took Excedrin (with a capital E), three, instead of two. WTF? But you don't bother to tell us how much money the sucker sister pissed away to her addict brother, $200, $20,000? Yes, both were written on purpose. The use of naming Excedrin in the scene was to paint a vision for the reader's mind's eye. Something for the reader to help grasp visually the two people standing in the room trying to decide the best course of action. And we purposely didn't name the amount the sister gave her brother, although we did state it was all her funds, because we wanted the reader to question how much it could be (Hitchcock's McGuffin).
This past weekend the Wall Street Journal had an article explaining how many of the young girls putting their bodies on TikToK and other social media are having emotional issues because anonymous (or even friends) comment on any real or perceived flaws of those bodies. I guess we Literotica LW writers can relate. A story gets written in an effort to entertain and anyone with a terminal and keyboard can slam the writer because they don't like the plot, the outcome, etc. Pretty soon all there will be here is one or two decent writers and a whole lot of garbage. In other words, useful criticism is more than welcome, but keep the caustic comments to yourself.
Thanks to all who enjoyed 'Chuck and Sammi' and took the time to say so. All the best,
Bill
