Hey all!
I just had my surgery on Tuesday and I am so happy to have found this site. I know I'm only 4 days post op so this may be a little bit of a silly question but I thought I'd get some insight.
Not going to lie it's been a pretty painful recovery so far. I'm just taking Tylenol as the Tramadol was giving me some weird side effects. Anyways, it's quite painful if I pull my shoulder blades back and stand up straight. If I'm hunched the pain really is non existent. The pain when I do this is on the right side, internally, feels like something is being stretched that shouldn't be. I'm assuming it's just muscle/organ healing etc. It's also quite painful to get get up from laying down or try and roll side to side. Again I'm only 4 days post op so I'm not overly concerned but any insight or similar healing stories would be helpful.
Thanks in advance!
Jamie
