Still in pain 2 weeks post op. Any advice?
Posted , 8 users are following.
Anyone got any advice? I am 2 weeks post op and still getting a lot of pain especially at night. I do my exercises (4 of them) regularly up to 8 times a day and try to walk a little every hour or so. I did a short walk outside yesterday too. Still using 2 crutches. I. Take the strong co codamol every 6 hours, so that I can take a dose during the night. Should I cut down on the exercise? Should I try to get a different painkiller? Or is the pain something you have to work through? I wouldn't mind that as long as it gets better eventually . I see my consultant tomorrow and am having the clips out so I suppose I can check with him. Just wondered what others have experienced. Jen

Hope things are improving for you. Very very early days yet. Just keep doing the exercises and if no improvement go back to your consultant. I am rather biased...I am still in pain 4 years after my op.so not really the person to ask but I wish you well in your recovery
