Hello and Thanks for choosing 'Ask a Doctor' service for your query,
I've gone through your details.

Yes, you are free to travel just avoid heavy jerks and jolts and keep Ibuprofen tablets with you (in case pain starts for early care).

However from my side, if you are asymptomatic enjoy your trip.

Hope I was helpful.
