As long as no NSAIDS you take pretty much anything. Some have ibuprofen so check the labels. If not sure the pharmacists can help.

I never had success with Tylenol products before RNY but I was pleasantly surprised how well they worked post-op for me. I have used the sugar-free Ricola lozenges for sore throat. 

Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!

Have you tried a Netti Pot to clean out your sinuses? It's gross but it works great.
