How concerned should I be?



Recommended Posts

I'm 9 days post op and have a huge amount of back pain, it starts in the middle of my back and radiates up my left side. I spoke to my doc and he said it sounds muscular and to rest. I've also noticed I have a slight fever, 99.2 and my heart rate is roughly 95. I just feel crappy. Any possibility this could be a leak?

I had ( still have a little) the same thing. My surgeon and pic both said it was from laying on the flat surgical table so long. My chiropractor agrees as well. Take some Tylenol for now, no adjustments for at least 6 weeks tho. Walking helps a bit and I also got a back massager that helps too.

My back by my left scapula was hurting most of the morning, but now it's gone. I think I over did it yesterday. It's always good to check with your doctor.
