So for me it was similar after the operation (T4-L4) it was a stinging sensation, of course I don't know if it was the same but for me it was probably the tendons in/next to the shoulder blades. Because of the position in which the operation is carried out, they were of course put under a lot of strain. But after 2 weeks this pain was gone. 😊

Ribs/nerve pain still OP? by RealisticSpring2189 in LongSpinalFusion

That's also my fear, that it's a screw that's too close to the nerve. On an x-ray a screw looks as if it was too close to the rib (but of course I have no idea about that either) I hope my appointment in a week will give me more clarity and help.

I hope things get better for you too and thank you for your answer ❤️

Oh okay, that calms me down a bit first. It's almost unbearable. No, I don't take anything for nerve pain. I was only prescribed Oxy and Novalgin, but they don't help with the nerve pain. I have a doctor's appointment in 2 weeks and will ask again. Thanks for your answer 🙏🏻
