Nerve Repair

Threecats
Offline

Hi, 

I had Pelvic Extenerative Surgery in March 2021. I have a skin graft that runs along my bottom and underneath between my legs. The graft is soft and healed except for a tiny section that is slowly mending. I also had the lymph nodes in both groins removed. 

For the last few weeks I have experienced random shooting pains in the area and a  tingling sensation when I sometimes bend over. My consultant said the shooting pains sounded like nerve repair.

Has anybody else suffered these pains post op? I get so worried that I am ill again.

    Hi.

     

    I had neck op in March, removing lymphnodes, although not exactly same op i appreciate.

    Definitely sounds like nerve issues, i occasionally get the odd strange feelings in my neck area, and still have very little feeling directly and surround area of Op.

    Depending on age, also determines how quick your body will repair, but as you were maybe told, it will be a new norm? .

    Stick with excercises etc they have gave you, will help in longterm.

     

    All the best.
