What did you have done?? It doesn't say. I assume you had fusion?? What you're feeling is PROBABLY the nerves healing, but don't take my word for it. When nerves heal, it can be painful. They had to move them & cut them, etc. when they did your surgery -- nerves heal at the rate of one inch per month, so as you can see, it takes quite awhile to heal.
If it was fusion that you had, most people don't completely heal for at least a year and you can expect pain all that time. In fact, don't expect your pain to completely go away at ALL. You will undoubtedly keep some pain permanently. No one is pain free after fusion. Ive never known anyone to be, and I've been in chronic pain for 26 years.
If you think this is something different, you should go see your doctor. I wish you the very best. God bless. Hugs, Lee
