I just had the implants put in 6 days ago. I had no idea the pain would be so bad. Starting to wish I had read some reviews before doing the procedure. I am in a lot of pain. The pain med does not take the pain away. It takes the edge off but my leg hurts if I am standing and of course pain in my back is still bad. I am in more pain than before the surgery. I just don't think it is supposed to be that way.

Hello @mary1996 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, a community of members sharing experiences and supporting one another.

It sounds like you weren't expecting these results. I wonder if you can share what information your surgeon shared with you with regard to your recovery and also if you've contacted them since surgery to express your concern about the pain?
