Managing pain after surgery

I’ve been reflecting on post-operative pain management in our little patients. It’s crucial to monitor their discomfort levels closely, especially after procedures like spaying or neutering. I find that using a combination of medications can really make a difference in their recovery. What techniques do you all use to ensure they’re comfortable during this time?
