Hello, I think this is a question for the person who did the procedure. Do you have PMR or GCA?

As SnazzyD says ask your surgeon. It sounds as if they may have hit a nerve.

Hi larryterry, I would report this post surgical symptom to your doctor, it sounds important. You are right that Prednisalone, if you are on it, it can slow healing down. I guess that’s why you asked. I love the photo. Which one is you?
