Long term fusion ----pressure??

Hi all,
******** here. I have a question for anyone who had PLIF a while back. The question is is it normal...to still feel pressure at the incision site after standing or walking a while, does it ever go away or do you just deal with it? I am a year out and figure this is probably as good as it is gonna get, which is fine, I am not complaining or in pain. I just still feel pressure, not pain when I walk a good bit or stand for a long time. The dr. says I will probably always feel some....pressure at the incision site. I was just wondering if other folks who had the surgery a year ago still feel pressure form time to time? It is not constant, some days I can almost forget that I ever had surgery , but if I'm really tired or walk or stand I do..feel pressure. Any opinions? Thanks, have a great day all. ********

BrennWill,
I still have that feeling also , I also have the tightness back there when I do stuff . I think were just going to have to live with it. It doesn't bother me as much as the aches and pains.

To your question , yes I get that feeling .

Hope your pain is controlable

Morning Shawley,
Good to know that I'm not the only one. I don't even have to take anything for it, it's not pain, just a pressure type feeling. I can definetly live with it, just wanted to know if anyone else felt it, compared to the pain I had before, it's a peice of cake. Hope your sis is doing ok. Have a good one! Bren
