Depending on what they would have left, you would experience pain or swelling. If it is something like gauze then it could also lead to infection, and with that could lead to much greater medical problems. See your Doc as soon as possible.

Your intestines don't have nervous suppy for pain.  So, you can't feel your organs, but you can feel the inside of the tissues of your back, hence the pain is felt in the back.  It is usually a really deep low back ache.  Best wishes

Pain down the leg is generally a pinched nerve in the back. As one ages the openings that once were large become constricted. It may also be a warning sign of something else going on in your back or hips.\nNerve pain is generally burning, biting, electrical in nature...it can rock you for a few minutes or last longer.\nTry laying flat and stretching..\nAge and or injury may add to you pain. See a doctor.

No, it's all about our spines actually. . . when laying down without a pillow there is a big stress in your neck. In the morning you will have a stiff neck and funny posture. Over a long time you could end up with scoliosis or have a mis curved spine.

It will be just like if you were pregnant and they did the thing with the jelly on your stomach and used a little roundish type object and rub it on your belly like when they look for the baby...you probably won't even have to get totally undressed...just wear something comfy that you can pull down a bit (just below your navel) and a shirt that you can pull up (just under your bra).  It isn't scary at all and it doesn't hurt.  They can see gallstones and such with this procedure.

When you press on your tummy it will hurt when you release....Not when you press down...So press down then release...If it hurts when you release...I'd get to the Dr.!

Not even funny. I have done this twice. Once in '80 and again in '98. It is excruciating, and you can't put your bum in a cast, so you basically sit halfway on your Ishium and endure the agony for 6 to 8 weeks. It still hurts! \np.s. what does 'the dickens' mean? devil?

Newton’s first law. An object at rest will stay at rest until a force it applies to it. your stomach is not harness to your skeletal structure, so when you drop suddenly the parts that are pulled down go down but parts of your body that are "free floating" (i.e. stomach arms hair things like that) get pulled down last. So they tend to rise upward. That feeling in your stomach is the actual raise of your intestinal tract, creepy huh?

I go to the chiropractor for scoliosis and TMJ. The first week I hurt because my muscles and spine were moving. It is completely natural for you to hurt. I took ibuprofen to take away some of the pain. After a couple of weeks you won't hurt anymore. That is, unless you miss a visit! ;-)

I disagree. Now it totally depends on the hardness and comfort of the chair itself.\n   Put a LAZY-BOY recliner on concrete...\nIs your butt going to be sore after 8 Hours??? Probably not.\n   Put a hard wooden chair on concrete and yes your buttock will most likely hurt after a short period of time. ( I don't think it would matter any if the hard wooden chair was on pillows, however. It would still probably hurt your buttock after sitting in the wooden chair for a long period of time.

It depends more on where you get it on your body, and your pain tolerance.\n\nIf you get it somewhere more 'fatty', it won't hurt as much.  My goes across my spine, and as it is directly over bone, it hurt a good bit.  For me, the outline hurt and filling in the design barely registered.

If you're talking like rods and pins and fusion...seriously get a 2nd opinion.\n\nMy sister has had 3 unsuccessful back surgeries.  It's ruined her life.

First, see a doctor for xrays to rule out pinched nerve, cracked or broken bone(s) that may not have healed properly. Also rule out tendon or muscle pulls you may be continuing to aggravate due to your natural movements, work, sports, etc. Once you have ruled out those causes:\nFor some people, sleeping on a hard surface, like the floor, for 7-10 days can greatly reduce or eliminate the pain, since you are not putting extra tension on the back while sleeping/tossing/turning.  Do this after a very warm 20 minute bath which will relax your muscles and help you sleep.\nSit-ups, as many as you are comfortable with, daily will strenghthen abdominal muscles which will take strain away from back muscles for natural support. Massage therapy from a RMT can work wonders as well. Consult your physician about chiropractic, with a full understanding of the possible risks and benefits. Avoid Rx unless it is your last resort,  consulting with a pharmacist for precise advice. Products such as "Icy Hot" patches are very effective for temporary 8-12 hour relief. Carefully examine your posture while sitting and standing, expecially at the computer. Use a very good chair with proper lumbar support and maintain a straight back, not slouching. If you frequently have to drive for long periods and your vehicle is not properly equipped, buy a good quality lumbar/leg support seat pad, perhaps with the heating and/or vibration options at any dept store.\nIn Canada, you can actually get a Rx from your doctor to purchase a hot tub/jacuzzi, making the purchase deductible from your income tax. Check with your tax dept. A hot tub is excellent therapy if you have no cardiovascular conditions, such as hyper or hypotension and mostly fun anyway!
