Public health warned us not to use ibuprofen. He has already taken tylennols, but his legs are very sore.

Hello Ma'am,
Advil™ is now allowed to be taken during a COVID-19 infection, as long as it is not taken every day for several weeks in a row and if Tylenol is not sufficient (ref:
https://www.inesss.qc.ca/covid-19/autres-traitements/anti-inflammatoires-non-steroidiens.html
).
So we could combine Tylenol™ and Advil™ for a few doses to see if it helps. If no difference in symptoms is encountered, we stop the Advil™.
Good day,
Alexander
