Had an emergency c section. Back pain, right shoulder numb, red hot patched on leg. Reason?
Hi! I had an emergency c section 8 weeks ago and I have a horrible back pain that makes parts of my right shoulder go numb and it gives me severe pins and needles in my right leg! I also get blotchy red hot patches on leg too. I had to have 3 epidurals and 2 spinal blocks as my body was still reacting to pain. Please help!!

Hi there ~
You should follow up with a pain specialist as it is unusual for you to have these sensations and blotchy red hot patches. I am thinking that you had an allergic reaction to the medication that was given to you epidurally and the spinal blocks. I hope things get better over time and you have a good recovery. I hope the baby is doing fine. Please see a pain specialist as soon as possible.
Take care and have a lovely day!
