I had coolsculpting on my abdomen three weeks ago and am still in pain. I went to the ER for it last week and they checked my blood work, they said I'm fine give it time. Is this very abnormal? When will the pain subside? It was nerve pain but now the whole area is very sore :(

Answer: Pain After Coolsculpting Most patients experience very mild symptoms but, with any medical procedure, each patient's experience is unique. Symptoms subside over time and have no long-lasting complications and usually resolve in 1-3 weeks. Symptoms that may be experience are deep itching, tingling sensation, tenderness to the touch and aching or cramping to the treated area. Please contact your provider if your symptoms are severe and interfering with your ability to perform activities or sleep. There are prescription medications that can be helpful if needed. Best of luck to you!!

Answer: Pain after cool sculpting Good evening! Thank you for writing. Pain or discomfort is very common after CS. Depending on the applicator used, or the body part that was treated, the pain and discomfort can vary significantly. The pain can even vary from body parts of body part within the same individual. Usually discomfort discomfort last for 2 to 3 weeks, along with the numbness of the skin. There's a small percentage of patients that actually have a very heightened Sense of discomfort after the procedure. Rarely do we need to prescribed medications, but it Happens. If the pain is preventing you from sleeping, Or last longer than 2 to 3 weeks, I would recommend talking to your provider. Hope this helps!
