I am 4 weeks Post Op from Fusion T10-L3 before surgery I have a flat waist at my left side with a big indentation on my right which looked odd, you could see if from the back and it looked twisted, now I have had surgery it seems to have swapped sides although the indentation now on my left isn’t that bad, does anyone what this could be/experienced it themselves?
