sharp pains on left side?
I'm almost 2 weeks post op no problems until now, couple days back did my longest walk yet was gone for nearly an hr, that night attempted to sleep on my left side. Ever since (don't know if its related) but when I stand or lay on the couch leaning to my left im fine but when I get up I get alot of sharp pain its only on my left side towards the back. Anyone else had/having this... its very disconcerning I surely do not want to go back to the hospital it feels like back pain but very sharp and restricts my movement alot. If I lay down on my back and just stay there for a bit and then get up it goes away but slowly comes back. I consulted my doctor, well the nurses station, and they advsd if you cant handle the pain go to the ER but you probably just pulled a muscle or brusied your side from laying that way.
Looking for some encouragement or advice. Love you guys
-cheers.
