Severe Muscle Soreness

[Candi_83 10]

I am 9 days post op and I have had the most awefull lower left abdominal pain. My muscles are so sore it hurts to sit for too long, hurts to stand up straight, it even hurts to talk some times.

I pain meds the dr gave me didn't even touch it. I'm now on muscle relaxers and still not getting much relief. The pain go a little better once the drain came out on day 10.

Has anyone else experienced this kind of pain? If so was there anything you did that made it feel better?

In the hospital they gave me warm compresses to put on my very painful muscles. It didn't make the pain stop but made it more tolerable.

Candi,

I have the same issues. I use a heating pad. I cannot sit up straight cause it makes the pain too intense. I also have muscle relaxers and narcotics. Though I don't believe they do much. Docs keep telling me it's normal and I just need to give my body time to recover. It's significantly better than it used to be but it still hurts like crazy!

Aleyampat how far out from surgery are you? I'm using the hearing pad too. It dulls it but just like you said, doesn't take th pain away.

If your far enough out try eating a banana.... my muscles have been killing me and the bananas really help with the pain and cramps
