c-section ladies, back pain; anyone else?

Genna · Jul 6th, 2009, 16:55 PM

Just wondering if any of you ladies who had a c-section are getting lower back pains from the epidural? Mine is still there, always there but dull, nothing like it was a couple of weeks ago

I didn't even feel when they put the epi in, absolutely painless, but I know where it was put in. So this isn't due to a problem while it was put in.

Anyone else?

No but got a sort of numbness at top of bum which could end up painful.

Yes I get lower/middle back pain. I know where the epidural was put in too, not that it's the spot that's hurting me, but I just have this awareness of where it was...

Ive got back ache. Its the spot where the epidural was put in. Just thought maybe i had overdone it.

I've had backache (and an annoying numb bit in my leg) since I had my spinal.

Not had any general back pain but did have very localised pain where the epi went in, bruise pain I guess you could call it, it just hurt when pressure was applied to the spot around where it went in.

If you're worried contact your GP hun. It's important to report side effects of these things so that all the risks can be assessed for other women and yourself in the future.
