Can the pain be tolerated after surgery with just an NSAID? I need bunion surgery and I cannot take prescription pain killers. I have had patella shortening surgery with plates & screws with no Rx after...

Yes. I just got my lapiplasty bunion surgery 8 weeks ago. My doctor had prescribed some painkillers, but I didn't need it . I only took advil dual action ( over-counter) for the first several days after surgery to manage the pain.
