Burning and muscle shaking after surgery. Is this normal?

Question

I had a mommy makeover on feb 24 so I'm 5 days post op. I am experiencing burning in my entire body and muscle tremors, is this normal. I've went to the ER and talked to my PS for this and they can't figure it out. HELP!

Your complaints are not specific to any particular medical problem. If you been checked out medically this all might be due to extreme nervousness. Discuss this with your surgeon. You might benefit from medication to combat anxiety.

Constance M. Barone, MD · Answer

Having the rectus muscle spasms after a muscle repair can occur and this corrects over time.   From your description I cannot tell if this is muscle shaking of the entire body.   If this is the case, it can be medication related, so all medication should be stopped.   If this continues then a Neurologist should see you to evaluate for seizures and tremors.   Best of luck to you.
