They hurt so bad like someone stuck me with a knife. I would be walking or talking and stop dead in my tracks. Its a terrible pain! It will improve and become less and less in time, I rarely get anything like that now several years post surgery. Next doctors visit make sure to mention this to them and ask how long you will deal with this issue.
