Back Pain

Day 5 post C-section and my lower back where they did the spinal is suddenly flared up aching and in pain with zapping pain from that spot out into my upper back, ribs, and butt. Is that pretty normal? I don’t remember having this issue with my first! My husband did say I have a significant bruise along my spine so maybe that’s it…?

My 1st in 2022 I had the worst bad back after my C-section, finally eased off after about a year & half. Then I had another C-section back in July this year and it wasn’t too bad, I do still get the odd twinge and ache, and when I do it hurts so much. Mainly when I’m stood or leant over in a certain way, like changing baby on the bed sets it off. It’s just a very common thing with csections to have a bad back

I dont have pain, but if i bend over too long, my legs start to go numb. Im thinking a nerve got damaged in my mid/lower back from my spinal.

Mine was muscular as all the muscles tense up. I am in the UK and I saw a physio who massaged all the muscles and released them and I could sit and move comfortably. It took about three sessions for the muscles to fully relax.

I am 4weeks post c-section and have been suffering with bad back pain also, I had pain killers but they don’t work. I went to the Drs & they told me It sounds like sciatica and I’ve been told to do stretches. It’s gone a lot better but still painful! Also no idea if it is sciatica or something to do with the epidural

I’ve had back pain from ever since my first c section in 2023. And I have a constant ache right where they injected the epidural 🫠 I’ve accepted this is my life now
