I have been getting a different pain in my back and a creaky sound at the fusion site. My sister in law says this happened to her and is normal healing but I am worried. My PT has me doing new exercises and I also just started wearing a bone growth stimulator and wonder if those changes could be affecting me?

Would have thought the sensible thing to do would be to speak with your PT or doctors about any concerns.
I see PT tomorrow. Just wondering if others had any experience with this.
