Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether perioperative single-dose administration of ketorolac (Toradol) can reduce post-operative pain after breast surgery, thereby decreasing post-operative opioid use.

Primary Outcome

This will be assessed by using a Likert scale(0=no pain to 10=extreme pain) for pain in the post-operative period before they are discharged. If patients are kept overnight then another pain assessment will be done. Additionally, patients will keep a 2-week diary of average pain in the morning and evening each day until their 2 week follow up visit.
