Mekkie_C 8 Posted September 8, 2017 Can you call your surgeon's office? There should be an on-call doctor available. If it is really bad, consider going to the ER. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted September 8, 2017 A LOT of people have this problem with the big incision. It's to do with the stitch on a nerve. Can last for 6 weeks. But, in case that isn't the problem here, if the pain becomes unbearable or you develop a fever, be sure to go to the ER. 1 lmaurer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
