Fed up with the pain

Hiya, I had very similar pain to you (I'm 9 days post op), the best thing that worked for me were Voltarol Suppositories, its not the greatest med to administer but will relieve the pain. I first had these when I went into A&E, some GPs are a bit reluctant to prescribe them, stand firm! Hope you have a better day today x

Hi Helony,

I'm so sorry you're suffering so much- sending sympathy and understanding your way! the pain is such helll when you can't get it under control.

Although I cant promise to take all this pain away for you (we wish!), I do have a little suggestion. You say you've tried hot water bottles. Have you got an electric heating pad at all? I swear by mine, it's such a great accompaniment to pain meds and can even replace them for the very mild pain. It plugs into a socket and has three heat settings- they're great for when lying in bed or on the sofa, especially for your back as you can pop them under you and they relieve some of the tension. Great for that leg pain too!

I hope you feel at least a little better soon xx
