Mine happened mostly when I was doing things...when I used my muscles. It would kind of set it off. My plastic surgeon said it is pretty common and would last awhile since he tightened up all of the muscles. He put me on 2.5-5 mg of oral Valium and it worked wonders though it really knocked me out! I made sure I didn't go too far when I took them. I probably had them for a good 6-8 weeks after the surgery.
