Constant Back Pain After Spinal Fusion Surgery

I had constant back pain for quite a while after my spinal fusion

i had zero pain before fusion surgery but after surgery pain started and now over 4 years post surgery it still hurts like the dickens. real disheartening to feel like the surgery made things worse :/ so i feel ya

I still had pain after surgery. I had a bone spur grow from the fusion and had a second surgery to have the spur removed. Now the back pain is better but my shoulders and neck are sore constantly. For me that is a hypothyroid symptom, a leftover scoliosis symptom, and an anxiety symptom. I avoid heavy lifting because it causes pain.

I've been to the doctor MANY times post surgery and they all say this is NOT normal. I was diagnosed around the age of 11, had surgery at 14. I'm now almost 17 and was diagnosed with CRPS a few weeks ago. I was a dancer before this also, for 10 years. Absolutely devastating that you had to go through this too.

I had surgery 2017 and I had pain since then but last year I realized that one of the rods broke there , I think the pain was a sign of a struggle between my body and those rods

I had my spinal fusion at the age of 15 and I'm now 27 and deal with constant pain sometimes I can't breathe because of how bad the pain is
