Day 5 Posterior hip replacement nerve pain

Posted by delconian @delconian, 4 hours ago

I had surgery Monday (July 6) today is the 11th, I have had this pesky nerve discomfort since Thursday, making it difficult to sit in a recliner and elevating my legs makes it worse. I've been able to stop the oxycontin since Tuesday, but felt like one last night.. I don't take the 500 mg.of Tylenol for pain. Still wearing diapers to offset the bathroom dash , I'm 70 and in fairly good health, but this head game is depressing.
