Puffy-no-more 141 Posted February 26, 2020 Hey so I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this. Before my surgery, my surgeon told me the incision on my left side would be the most sore. It definitely is but I'm starting to wonder if there is more to it. My surgery was a week ago tomorrow. I have been off of all pain meds for several days now. Since that time, that incision has been more sore and swollen than all of the others. But starting this morning, I started having a stabbing pain in it almost anytime I moved that is very strong. That has since changed to a very strong burning pain even when I just move my left leg. The incision site looks fine. No redness or drainage or anything but I'm starting to wonder if something else is going on. If I push on it firmly enough, there is a hard lump that is not on the opposite side. Anyways, thoughts??

Uomograsso 364 Posted February 26, 2020 If is a larger incision, your surgeon might have put a stitch in to help keep it closed. You might be feeling it. Check with your doctor to be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
