Having some burning feeling after cervical fusion. Normal?

I had this surgery last month. Front and back.
No pain for me. Go back to doctor.

In my experience, no, that's not normal. I'm fused at the C5-C6 and C7-T1 level, and I don't remember having any kind of burning or new pain afterwards. Call the surgeon.

@mrmacabre hi, I had the exact same double fusion on Fri feb 13th.
Is there anyway t message on here?, I'm wondering if I could bug you for a few

Did you do anything different that you can recall that may explain the new pain? Definitely check with your dr.

I hope you get things sorted

@gothghoul I sent you a short message, check it out.

Hi, I had C2 - C6 (2nd time) fusion last May. It fixed the initial problem and ended up leaving me with radiculopathy at C6 giving me shooting / electric pains down my left arm and neck (which is new). The surgeon refuses to acknowledge that he "may have" caused this during surgery. I tried everything to 'resolve' it and nada. So I guess I'm living with this now. As a nurse, I knew better than to start "messing" with my spine because a doc once told me that once you start having surgery (on the spine), you'll never stop. Not try to be negative, just factual.

I had similar surgery 2001, for me when there is burning it is usually nerve pain. I had to wear a Miami J collar for 3 months. The first 2 weeks post op were the most painful, lots of spasms and nerve pain. After a year you pretty much know the result. Take it easy, no zip lining!
