Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Skin biopsy is a minor procedure and pain will last for only few days. You can continue Oxycodone/Acetaminophen until the pain reduces. You can do all your routine activities after two days of the procedure.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
