Brief Summary: The main objective of the study is to measure the efficacy of a multimodal postoperative pain regimen consisting of oral acetaminophen and naproxen compared to a traditional opioid-only pain regimen following elective wide awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) hand surgery in a Hispanic population. The study is a randomized control trial comparing the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing elective WALANT hand surgery performed by a board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopedic hand surgeon (Dr. Christian A. Foy).

The study groups are:

* Control group: standard pain control with opioids
* Experimental group: multimodal non-opioid pain control

Study Outcomes are:

* VAS pain scores (7 days),
* Total opioid usage
* Patient satisfaction
* Adverse events

We hypothesize that patients receiving multimodal pain regimens will report lower opioid use, lower pain scores, and greater satisfaction than patients receiving traditional opioid-only pain management.
Detailed Description: The main objective of the study is to measure the efficacy of a multimodal postoperative pain regimen consisting of oral acetaminophen and naproxen compared to a traditional opioid-only pain regimen following elective wide awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) hand surgery in a Hispanic population. The study is a single-blind, single-center randomized control trial comparing the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing elective WALANT hand surgery performed by a board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopedic hand surgeon (Dr. Christian A. Foy). Patients will be consecutively recruited at the center and randomized in a 1:1 ratio into the control and experimental groups. The control group will receive the standard of care for postoperative pain: 10 pills of 5mg oxycodone Q4hrs as needed. The experimental group will receive 30 pills of 500mg acetaminophen Q4hrs and 30 pills of 500mg naproxen Q4hrs until pain resolves or treatment is completed. The experimental group will also receive 5 tablets of 5mg oxycodone to take Q4hrs as needed for breakthrough pain. Postoperatively, daily pain Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores, total opioid usage, patient satisfaction, and adverse events will be recorded. We hypothesize that patients receiving multimodal pain regimens will report lower opioid use, lower pain scores, and greater satisfaction than patients receiving traditional opioid-only pain management.
