RE: numbness 7 mo post op...

[Guest guest]

That pretty much describes the area where my durra patch was taken on my

head. But I would be concerned if it was on a whole side of my body! What

has the Dr. said???

numbness 7 mo post op...

I had decompression surgery in January and still have numbness all up and

down the right side of my torso. The skin is numb but underneath it is

really

tender (so tender the weight of my shirt sometimes bothers it). I cannot

stand too cold or too hot water in the shower and a lot if times the area is

itchy (but I can never itch it because of the pain). I have had this

complaint for almost a year now and nothing has changed since surgery. Any

ideas on how to make the area not so tender or numb?
